Seek me not from the branches
I hide not beneath their leaves...
As soft the music of the leaves
Flutters in the warm and gentle wind...
Overtones of guilt
Flicker in her anguished eyes...
A thousand pardons, I beg of you
Now let me on my way...
Forever
Cradled by the steady sea...
Dull white paper stars
Hang by strings from painted night...
I was 5 the first time,
I flew through the door...
The softest of the dancing lights
Float across the barren field...
Twist the knife a little deeper
The pain is all that keeps me alive...
You, my hooded falcon,
Once creened promises of love...
I thought you were my angel
Here to save me from all things...
Crystallized drops of blood fall
Landing in a perfect arrangement at my feet...
