lyrics

I Awoke

“Oh, let me in!”
the sea would sigh
in the sound again

Unloyal friend
you read it right
I won’t be back
again

(How)

Let it be lost
the world was never
new enough
Lay low like dust
Lie between the seam
of thing
and thought

And when the vow
was made
the note appeared
And when the soul
was saved
it grew a tear
And when the promise
breaks the words
would rise up
off the page
now, do you hear?

I’ve come
to know truth
as more a door
and less the roof
but I can’t
forgive you…
And you don’t know why
and I don’t know what
to do

“Again!” they said
and held me to
the ground
“Amen!” the angels sang
from stingy clouds
And then I rose
the ruined ghost
that no one knew
and no one
figured out

The will became
the wheel became
the spoke
And more
would be revealed
but I awoke
to a scene
still flickering
it could be
sickening
or all
that I’m owed

All that I’m owed

Am I owed?
