NIGHTWIND by Moondog Rivers

ride home in the rain
mumble of the day
lights on the highway
shapes fall into place
wipers whine along the way

tell me of the dream
when you were fast asleep
night wind through the screen
say you'll stay with me
something wrong I can feel it

you were right you were right
from the very start
phantom photos and shadows in the dark
it was light, it was life like a burning star
frozen cold to the bone in the heat of mars

clock is glowing red
fighting the heavy lids
you like the window open
watching and wondering
why your eyes move that way

you were right you were right
from the very start
phantom photos and shadows in the dark
it was light, it was life like a burning star
frozen cold to the bone in the heat of mars

I made a promise to myself
one day I'd learn to let it go
it steals the breath out of my lungs
the truth I buried far below
its as if I am recalling something else
stolen images from someone else's mind
I've been over it a hundred times
I will die before I let it take my life
