Eclipse

Sunglasses when the sun is gone
So I cannot be afraid
The buildings turn to scraps
In the projections I've made
Eclipsed by the gray
Of the moon
Orbit around the thought of it
I resignate my youth
(But reach for it, too)
Take it all except the curtains
And memory of truth
My village is crowded as a prison
But silent as a booth

Waiting on a diner milkshake
'Cause now I'm getting clean
And I won't even ask about
What those words you say mean
I'm serene
But I can't see well
That happens when it's dark outside
As far as I can tell
In the burning of my bridges
Forgiveness flickers warm
While I can't touch through words
All the dreams from which I'm torn
There's light hanging outside
The dark eye of the storm
