Spaces
Vague, vacant
Like a madman's memory
Sunlight
Moonlight
The sky housed his soul
On a bed of stones
There are things that hunt us
Places that curse us
like trying to find home
In the shadows of a broken boy
That boy whose shadow covers my shame
That boy whose broken voice
Echoes my woes
That boy...oh don't you see?
We prey on the hunter
...in our dreams
And we awake, the preyed
Praying for voices
Waiting for echoes
But the boy looses his song
And soul and self in the shadows
Of a loathing history
How does a man find his name?
In a cold wine of bottled emotions
Sipping and gibbering
Singing and staggering
Mocking and mimicking
Boy found his name in a keg of wine
It rippled
And laughed at him
The preyed did pray to him
But boy's nipple
Would never be suckled
For how do you find your name
In a language that burns your soul
He knows that a broken boy is pyre
Waiting for God to call him home
So he tries to find myself
And becomes a hummed memory
Of mist and smoke and the silences
That prepare a table before him.
Sunshine that burn
Moonlight is gone.
Before boy stands God
Wondering what went wrong
Boy is lost
