about
A song about surviving a visit from Death.
lyrics
Light
I knew not the hour
Or the place, or the reason
But it bathed me in its rays
Begging to be captured, stored away
Stolen from whatever plane
It was cursed to claim
Hovering and waiting
For a heart to give up
For a set of lungs to empty in its wake
Emerald light slowly washed over me
Offering death, begging to set me free
Lifting and weeping
I begged it to recede, then
In a quiet room cast in pale hues
Leaving no time to say goodbye to you
Emerald tears fell to my skin
I realized I'd felt them before
Midwest hospital
Cold apartment floor
Bird dead in a cage
Poolside on July Four
Emerald light slowly washed over me
Offering death, begging to set me free
Emerald light carried me down the stairs
To somewhere darker, more violent than here
I woke to a sound
Doorkeeper in the corner
I asked if my time had run out
There were memories and sounds
Like an untuned upright piano
I could have been gone for years now
And we all looked like trees
Almost taken by the weather
Neither standing tall, nor pushed down
Sometime and some place
Something will carry us over
But it’s not here, and it’s not now
I woke to no sound
