Black-out curtain
stop the sun from melting sleep.
Wake up in the dark and don't know what time it is.
Lay bodies down beside where dark reveals a truth
through dreams of a brighter room
where a sun can live.
A gentle softer sun to fade us into coherence
and to start a day born without regret.
Don't ever go away from here and I will never go away.
Black-out curtain drop.
Lie there on the floor.
Don't block out our stars again,
we must wish on them.
A nearly falling first one projecting
through our room and then shooting big
as we place our dreams on it.
But when barren empty night bears harsher day sunlight,
we can't see in arms the hope
we could hold in them.
Don't ever go away from here and I will never go away.
