The first sunset of a new year
New colors: pinks, reds
Streak the horizon where the forest of trees end.
Take me into your December sky
So I can drown in it and
Your January eyes. Seek me
The light under which you sleep
Foreign lands, foreign tongues
My hands, foreign when they first found yours.
Likewise we explore all the crevices of these homes
Where our hearts slumber all alone
I know that you want to go
Where no one can find you.
I know that you want to go to a place where you don’t know anything but the sun, the air, the open world.
I know that’s where you want to go and
I want to go too.
Do you want me to come?
Do you want me to go?
New colors: pinks, reds
Streak the horizon where the forest of trees end.
Take me into your December sky
So I can drown in it and
Your January eyes. Seek me
The light under which you sleep
Foreign lands, foreign tongues
My hands, foreign when they first found yours.
Likewise we explore all the crevices of these homes
Where our hearts slumber all alone
I know that you want to go
Where no one can find you.
I know that you want to go to a place where you don’t know anything but the sun, the air, the open world.
I know that’s where you want to go and
I want to go too.
Do you want me to go?
