Stork & Owl

Faceless fall from this life and oh

If you can't see the stars you've probably gone too far

Like the voice that cried on the lonesome tide

Like the wave was the only love it ever saw

What's this dying for? The asks the stork that soars

With the owl high above canyons mighty walls

Owl said death's a door that love walks through

In and out, in and out, back and forth, back and forth

Turn from the fear of the storms that might be

Oh, let it free that caged on fire thing

Oh, hold its hands it'll feel like lightening

Oh, in your arms safe from the storms

Sky bends the moon's dress slung low, slung low

Dog star taught a dance

It goes, goes, goes, goes, goes, goes, goes

Arms out, knees bent, the motion flows

Like the soft open petals of a Jessica Rose

So Sirius, so it falls apart?

It just reveals the perfect nothing of everything you are

Of everything we are

Candle of life lights the blights and bruises

Oh, lay it down in the night, let it soothe this

Oh, hold its hands and we'll know what truth is

Oh, in its arms safe from the storms
