there is a child sleeping near his twin

the pictures go wild in a rush of wind

that dark angel he is shuffling in

watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled



the love you lost with her skin so fair

is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair

her green eyes bloom goodbyes

with her head in her hands and your kiss on the lips of another

dream brother

with your tears scattered round the world.



don't be like the one who made me so old

don't belie the one who left behind his name

'cause they're waiting for you like i waited for mine

and nobody ever came



i feel afraid and i call your name

i love your voice and your dance insane

i hear your words and i know your pain

your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of another

your eyes to the ground

and the world spinning round forever



asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over
