Water in the Valley

All the other eyes staring at the rock slide
Pull me out and get some sleep tonight
On the mountaintop there is still some air left
Watch the lights rising from the other side
I can’t write but I know you’ll get the words
In long nights like this, it’s in the fire
It’s stars that don’t light
It’s not like what you heard
Flood it and comb the banks for her
Where did you go that it’s been so long?
So long
Where did you go that it’s been so far?
Far gone
Water in the valley
