afar
Tonight the sun sets early
and like it, my heart sinks into darkness
seeing light only afar
only sun, too far to touch

dreamer, not seeing night
only vision and hope
waking in bed to find
alone, no-where are dreams

if I could sleep, until
my dream was near
I would be, only me
no more

how can we see the same sky
yet be so far apart
how can I be me
when distant sings my heart

my body, my soul, God's fate
I lie on my bed, I must wait
I lie in my head
heart's sweet thorns fill my blood

so cut open my heart, pour my soul
let us flow as one, no names, but I
remove this heart from my chest
where it does not belong
