EmbersA Poem by Andy CrawfordThese are lyrics to a song by my former band Turn off the Sun. You can download the track for free at www.facebook.com/turnoffthesun.Embers Tonight I’m stuck in amber When all I want is green, green, green You float like driftwood, immortal and serene Oceans between us On horizons blue and gold I left my soul down by the salty sea Did you get my love? Did you decimate? Did you cut your tongue? Did you get my love? Did you stand up Stand up for forgiveness? Tonight we dance on embers Did you feel it burn your feet? Restrained and passive, you fall into retreat Does it make your heart fail? The thought of letting go Take your fears and bury them at sea Should we find ourselves a slipstream? Or swim into the tide The sun creeps past my eyelids So I am blind Did you get my love, mainlined and fleeting? Did it resonate? Did it cause a scene? Did you get my love? Did you stand up Stand up for forgiveness? Desire can change, disarm her aim See the hunter cave, would you bleed my name? © 2012 Andy Crawford |
