The Glow

Take some of these candles
The glow will guide you out
Drink all of this water
And make sure that you tell me
That this is not the end
It’s with these I learn
That madness runs in circles
In hot water drift away
Until your skin is the colour of calm
It’s in steps and turns
That the fire ate the room up
It burned holes in all the chairs
I thought I wouldn’t make it past the hour
Take some of these candles
The glow will guide you out
Drink all of this water
And make sure that you tell me
I should look out through the window
A hundred times a day
And swim out in the distance
To keep a sense of space
'Cause this is not the end of everything ever
Now all your before is somebody’s after
