Close Your Eyes

The colors that bloom with sunrise
Do not themselves bring morning
I step outside in darkness
The streetlight marks my longing
Evening explodes with thunder
Falling shards of white noise
People below are listening
For clues of what they know they love
Cause it’s easy now
To trust what can’t hurt you
And it’s easy too
To see this as simple
But in the quiet of your room
All this red can fade to blues
Close your eyes baby close your eyes
Tell me about your passion
I’ll reconnect the splittings
A movement in desperation
Is blinded by the light of war
