Dawn can't break when the sun has burned to a crisp
There must have been some supernova I missed
My ultimate snapshot -"sky overcast"
Go out with a whimper, not with a blast
You open up your eyes
Open up your arms
Open your everything
Lay all your holy vows and unholy charms
All of you before me
And so you run
And so you run and so you run and so you run
Like a stray mutt
After a mutt
After a muttered confession of love
The haze
Lingers above
The pale dawning arc
Day can't break when the sun has turned to a crisp
There must have been some supernova I missed
My ultimate snapshot - "sky overcast"
Go out with a whimper not with a blast
To scour the blackened, soot covered earth
To cry out my name in violent birth
To settle the naught and settle the grudge
When there was no jury, I was the judge
Open up my eyes open up my arms open my everything
Lend me your dying vows and undying charms
I can still hear you sing
See you there standing calm
By the open window in the living room
And all the light in the world
Converges on you
