Burn It All Down, Go Go Go Go

Don’t ever let light see you Or your face Turn off the lamp Slam the door Try and find Your oldest thought Cast it away You watched him float You watched him burn From the shade and optimal spot Many mountains rise Never coming back You see the lake The fire feels hot You stand up tall Its growing higher Overtaking all See, now they come To the light So many cheer To see your plight To see your flight And see you flee Between those hills Don’t ever look back Don’t ever let the light see you Lest you run away Forget this all Return to bed Sleep soundly again again again Crumpled paper loft You blankly stare At that ceiling Shadows all soft What’s this you’re feeling? Sharp sounds you hear No more thoughts All turned to fear To instinct and to pain An even darker lane Your boarded-up windows wail You do not move Face of yours turns bright pale You watch fate spin Accept your place In a strange way, you win By most others, you have failed The liquid windows crack And in they pour Moths to your feast You will not move Will not divulge Now let them eat And let them pray And feel their heat Their wings and tears Hide from the light Hide from your fears You, you are gone Still, the small goat is howling You still hear him You still must be him Don't ever let the light see you Or your face
