Dragonfly,
Where have your wings gone?
Oh fair one,
Where have your teeth gone?
The clouds roll in,
And the evening sky fades past the darkest shades of browns,
The clouds roll in,
And the crowds they fade away; and now there's water on the ground,
And now there's water on the ground.
Dragonfly,
Where have your wings gone?
Oh fair one,
Where have your teeth gone?

You call me up,
Just to talk;
To clear out all fog of war inside my head,
To teach me how to count the dead.
You open my windows,
And send out the sadness like it's smoke.
You call me up,
Just to talk.
And it feels like there is no one left that I don't know,
In a room full of family, I have alone.
But your voice was always there-
But your voice was always there to guide me on the road.
And a simple conversation is always enough to bring me home,
You call me up.
You call me up,
Just to talk;
To clear out all fog of war inside my head,
To teach me how to count the dead.
You open my windows,
And send out the sadness like it's smoke.
You call me up,
Just to talk.
You call me up,
Just to talk.
Every time we speak to one another,
I realize that I'm not just another one of the voices that you hear,
And the people I have come to know,
Are not the ones who make me feel alone
I need to open a window.

Candlelight on the table,
Reaching out its warm arms,
We cast our light on the soil,
Watch us melt; pour us out.
I know I'll never find another storm,
That turns my power off quite like yours,
I know I'll never find another storm-
Quite like you do.
Candlelight so unstable,
Flickering into new shapes and,
Reflecting out into darkness,
Dancing perfectly; arrhythmic.
I know I'll never find another storm,
That turns my power off quite like yours,
I know I'll never find another storm-
Quite like you do.
Let the thunder roll.
Let the lightning guide us home.
Let's go.
Candlelight.

You called my name,
And I heard Your every word,
As clear as day,
But I was blinded by the sun,
You crawled through shame,
And did not wake with us at dawn.
You said it's worth it all the same; your blood is glistening.
I hear whispers, coming from the trees and,
Haunting me for good.
They're echoing Your words, forcing my attention,
Deeper through Your pain, it illuminates my life.
Your death is not,
Lost on me,
But my hearing tends to fall short,
And I want to be listening.
Deny, deny,
Deny Your voice,
My lips; they froze,
Your words were louder all the same,
They beat Your face,
And tried to take away Your voice,
But you still chose to say my name.
You still chose to say my name.
You still chose to say my name.
And I still denied Your name.
Deny.
Deny.
Deny.
I hear whispers, coming from the trees and,
Haunting me for good.
They're echoing Your words, forcing my attention,
Deeper through Your pain, it illuminates my life.
Your death is not, lost on me,
But my hearing tends to fall short.

I had another dream about you again, the other night.
It woke me up at 4am,
My mind was racing,
My heart was just a mess.
I couldn't help thinking,
I miss you again.
But I know you're alright,
You'll be sleeping well tonight,
And when the day breaks,
I hope you wake up happy.
I have tried for so long,
Just to carry the weight of this world on my shoulders,
The one where you and I could have been.
But now I've set sail,
And my hopes are reaching deeper waters,
And the sea itself is pushing its way in.
The weight of our world,
Doesn't make a good anchor.
The weight of our world,
Doesn't make-
Late at night I've kept you up,
In the form of a ghost,
I tried to make you a part of my life.
But death is what you brought,
And not a moment was your fault,
It's the guilt tripping in my head,
The fake giving up,
The lie that says I missed a chance.
And I know it might seem,
Like it's gonna be the end of me,
When I tear at my seams,
I finally find my peace,
But I know you're alright,
You'll be sleeping well tonight,
And when the day breaks,
I hope you wake up happy.
I have tried for so long,
Just to carry the weight of this world on my shoulders,
The one where you and I could have been.
But now I've set sail,
And my hopes are reaching deeper waters,
And the sea itself is pushing its way in.
The weight of our world,
Doesn't make a good anchor.
The weight of our world,
Doesn't make-

I've known,
And I don't want to keep it.
Surrender isn't a heartache,
Unless you try to beat it.
There's a tiny doorway up in my attic,
Where I keep all my seasons,
One tiny doorway, right next to the string lights,
Been shut for a reason-
I've known,
And I don't want to keep it,
Surrender isn't a heartache,
Unless you try to beat it.
It'll bruise if you beat it.
You say,
"Oh strong tower where are your legs?"
I lost them looking for time and space.
"Oh my son, I see everything."
I kept my pen close to my heart in my hideaway.
Hideaway.
There's a mouse of a man,
Up in my attic,
He's 2 feet tall and stands 10 feet high,
He looks a lot like my mirror,
And he's searching for something that's hidden where the seasons lie.
I hope that he finds it,
Oh I hope that he finds it.
You say,
"Oh strong tower where are your legs?"
I lost them looking for time and space.
"Oh my son, I see everything."
I kept my pen close to my heart in my hideaway.
Hideaway.
Come be my hideaway.
