Connecting the Fireflies

Straight up for the race
Parting the waves
Amnesty on your mind
Soldier on
Without your meals
Cornered a final thorn
Stayed too long
For any address
Calico wrapped round your neck
Hands at your heels
Feeling the faults
Bleached into the boardwalk
Lie still my starry eyes
Connecting the fireflies
Blinded by the page
Caught by the wind
Up to my shins in the silt
Standing still
Call it a day
All in a days work
Lie still my starry eyes
Connecting the fireflies
All eyes on you tonight
Connecting the fireflies
