The Great Silence

Haaaa ahhh, it’s fleeting, airborne, hours, gone
Hundreds of miles, left to chance
Haaaa ahhhh It’s peaceful, is there anyone out here?
Sip it slowly, make it last
Perfectly alone and on the run
Meet me on Europa and beyond
There was something in the way behind us, and the sky was changing
Called on by the great silence, the longest morning
It would seem, we overdosed on you and me
Promises are hard to keep
Stalling, slow, I only checked out for a little while
Fallow minds, all space and maybe
All bets off now anything can happen
Slow drive, night flight easy to imagine
Dip your headlights, easy on the passion
Something’s getting going, something’s gonna happen.

Snowbound

We close our eyes
On the side of a hill
Breathless and still
Sunblind
Acclimatise,
The air’s stretched out so thin
Threadbarely keeping the sky in
Cityscape and murmurs rise
Detonate and watch it shine
We only need a vapour trail
To knock the wind from our sails
Will we be snowbound? They say
Sometimes it’s still winter in May
We could be snowbound, again.
The lakes are ours
They’ll melt for us
We’ll soak them up
Whole hearted
A satellite
Tracks us down
Switching off,
We won’t be found
Cityscape and murmurs rise
Detonate and watch it shine
We only need a vapour trail
To knock the wind from our sails
Will we be snowbound? They say
Sometimes it’s still winter in May
We could be snowbound, again.
We will be snowbound, til when?
A break in the ice marks the end
Holed up and snowbound, here we are again.

He said
Come wander with me, love
Come wander with me
Away from this sad world
Come wander with me
He came from the sunset
He came from the sea
He came from my sorrow
And can love only me
I followed his voice and
His words beckoned me
Back to the fire
Back under the sea
