On Stray Ashes

Thumbnail

The wind blew down

Through the cracks of the home

And the frozen sides of it creaked

One day I'd of liked to see you come

Stay the night and fill me warm

With your sunlight

I just don't feel right

You sift through the trash

They've thrown in your lap

You're sailing past your feelings

But you can't ignore 'em

They'll again come around

I can see you drowning

In your orders assigned

In the falling in line

I wish for you not a window to crack

But for all of the sun and ground

For your feeling well

Stay your leave

The way you've turned isn't real

But I see it in your eyes

When you're calm

There's a leap in you

Face the blast

For all that you've been

What do you stand to keep

From running out the field?

There's only one way out

They'll wonder how it feels

When you wander out
