this night the moon’s darkened
the horizon’s lost in tint
star-stained sky and light-tainted cities
and nothing in between
the lookout-tower’s empty
the forest’s silent, still
time for a last dance
time for the last words
time to test the will
this night the moon’s darkened
the horizons lost in tint
star-stained sky and light-tainted cities
and no one in between
my mouth of prayers is empty
i am silent, still
the crushing weight of stillness
descends over me
and I surrender myself… to thee
take a last breath
embrace the sky
fly high with the wind
be what you are
stardust
the crushing weight of stillness
descends over me
and I surrender myself to thee
and I’ll be born again
