Sing me a song.
|
I know we've used up every dawn,
|
And yet I wonder
|
When the scholars find our bones
|
A thousand years from now under
|
All the ashes of the earth,
|
Will we be together?
|
The only thing I know for sure.
|
|
The plates may shift
|
And slit your wrists,
|
But wear your scars.
|
I will follow you through the dark.
|
|
Don't be afraid.
|
This is the last night of our lives.
|
Buried in flames.
|
So kiss me one more time tonight.
|
In your darkest night
|
When all is lost,
|
I will be your light,
|
At whatever cost.
|
|
Let the plaster flow into
|
The space our bodies used
|
To occupy.
|
Let it be a record of
|
The love that buried us alive
|
Underneath the sands of time.
|
A testament that even after death
|
Love survives.
|
|
Exit the vein.
|
Exit the lungs.
|
Exit the body.
|
Never the heart.
