Shellfire

Blood keeping
Our hearts beating
Salt forms on our cheeks tonight
Eyes meeting
While she’s heating
Everybody in the desert light
Take our clouds and turn them all
Into nothing, into nothing, into nothing
You know that we’re tired from always
Thinking something, thinking something, thinking something
I feel a fire burning
When I’m dancing by your side
As long as this world keeps turning
I’ll be here
I want to try a new lens
To see through with you
I want to shake the shellfire off our shoulders
Why don’t we leave our lightning
And head to
The treetops and the quiet boulders
Couldn’t see them
Couldn’t hear them
Thoughts that we push aside
My mind was feeling like a colosseum
With a black battle brewing inside
