Y A N A

Keep setting fires
Keep drinking water
Breathe while you can
This earth is your garden
You are the same, we are the weakest link
We are born naked, we may see our end before our time
One more stolen living heart in hand
Beating out, sleeping fast like sand
Help me now before I sleep again
Sing to me, shadow, tell me what I’ve done
And it’s there for you
Reaching out with aching arms
And it’s in me, calling you home
One more broken living heart in hand
Beating out, slipping fast like sand
Help me now before I sleep again
Hold me in this life, sheltered from what might come
Opening outward and filling your eyes
Flowing back in as you’re breathing its light
