I live at the edge of my city
A spot of fading green in the corner
A world within a world, and getting smaller
Of blue swords dividing the land
And people in the cracks
A stranger to paradise
Stranger than paradise.
Everyday the mirror of the sun
Is who we are
We, who used to ache with silence,
Now speak with the same.
Our conversations with voices across the river
Our love
Just a passing of the seasons.
Here I fought a blue beast
That brought me the gift of fear.
Here I lived a yellow night
That left you in my veins.
Again I break from my shell
As clouds break over the dawn
And I rise
And I wait
For the music to come.
