Eclipse

Drift by my door, cover up the sun

That ever-fixed mark

It vanishes when you're around, you're around

All is bathed in red, now

All I know is this

Tuck my dreams away, how

Lovely your eclipse

Just for once, can we

Forget about the changing tides

Let all things be now in the shadow of

the new moonrise, new moonrise

Faintest hint of gold, I

Feel you slip away

There are threads that pull us

To a distant day

Drawn to orbit,

I would melt these waxy wings

But soon enough,

I'd weep over these lifeless things, lifeless things

Icarus descending

Just before the burn

You're another lesson

I'd like to unlearn
