secure yourself

in the ink of an eye i saw you bleed;

through the thunder i could hear you scream

solid to the air i breath

open-eyed and fast asleep. falling softly as the rain;

no footsteps ringing in your ears. ragged down worn to the skin

warrior raging

have no fear. secure yourself to heaven. hold on tight

the night has come. fasten up your earthly burdens

you have just begun. kneeling down with broken prayers

hearts and bones from days of youth. restless with an angel's wing

i dig a grave to bury you. no feet to fall

you need no ground. allowed to glide right through the sun

released from circles guarded tight

now we all are chosen ones. secure yourself to heaven. hold on tight

the night has come. fasten up your earthly burdens

you have just begun.
