Youngest of those three,
The night sky is with us, we raise our drinks
Sky, I crash my scotch like rocks,
down among the broken glass we dance upon
with bloody feet, free spirits,
the scars will heal
forget defeat, I'm here,
the hurting isn't real
smile for me, wicked one, smile
tear the world down from its throne
we roll around in the grass like a red carpet
and know everything belongs to us;
everything and nothing
Hush now morning sun that cuts the clouds
Dawn, forget the sins we committed,
celebrate the new day down among the rushes
those laws are only real if we believe in them
Along with the moon you will rise,
baptized in mud I see it smeared across your forehead
Your eyes see nothing
I want to see what you see
Deep and lost within a fever dream
Where are you, Stars?
In the night you are made new, my epiphany
Down among the rushes, birthed in the shit of the river,
The smile that made my soul shudder
You are wicked, unknowing, allknowing,
Benevolence, benevolence,
The world is ours!
That’s something I’ll follow
There’s chaos on my lips as well
What's thicker than water?
What's thicker than blood?
Baptized in mud
I will show you spring's divinity
Bring about new life; bear my littoral crown
