First Light

Too much now
So calm the nerves
And listen to
The fools words
Take a sip
And feel it fade
It’s in my cup
A sealed fate
Give me something
Make me feel
When it slows
Then change the reel
Burning up
Inside of here
This constant buzz
Around your ear
Barely flies its wings are broken
Tumbling back to earth again
The worse of it so softly spoken
Still asleep when it begins
Just shine
This light
Forever
When it’s crashing down
I’ll live
This night
Forever
All my days
All my days
White noise keeps
The crowds at bay
From turning calm
To disarray
Velvet gloves
And silver tongues
Steal the world
It’s not enough
Draw the curtain
Say good night
It all beggings
At first light
Pull the trigger
While you can
And fall asleep
An honest man
Barely flies its wings are broken
Tumbling back to earth again
The worse of it so softly spoken
Still asleep when it begins
Just shine
This light
Forever
When it’s crashing down
I’ll live
This night
Forever
All my days
All my days
Just shine
This light
Forever
When it’s crashing down
I’ll live
This night
Forever
All my days
All my days
