Skies sigh secrets in the twilight fall I’ll love you only if you never go away And home grows sad until I’m nothing at all
Now regret drags me forth, towards time’s bubbling squall Does it matter what I love if nothing stays? Skies sigh secrets in the twilight fall
Potential is too tired to play; I’m an empty pinball Wings sprout restlessly from my heart (my grave) And home grows sad until I’m nothing at all
I wander to answer the wild geese’s call I want my childhood back, want to hide in those days But the skies only sigh secrets in the twilight fall
Sweetgums spit stars over the sidewalk spall I trace my steps down to the lonely blue bay And home grows sad until I’m nothing at all
Soon my scars bloom flowers and innocence grows so small Amber leaf tumbling open through the milky way Skies sigh secrets in the twilight fall And home grows sad until I’m nothing at all
