Erosion

Time wears away
Our shore erodes
Every day
So slight
As we count the stars
Lighting up the sky.

Recollect our fear of death
To guide us safely to the edge and
Reconnect
The life inside with silver light
Sublunar dreams will map our minds
Non-living narrow-minded thoughts
Of gold and green, whirring machines
Escape the growing pull of the tide
So slight.

Now
Before our ride
Rust born of salt and mist
Time
We've lost the care and love for growing things
Corrosive tongues speak black and white
Electric signs cut through the night
Commit the crime
Of an open mind.

To map our place and fate among the stars
We must find out who we really are
A lonely rock spinning round and round
Switch our thoughts
To bring about.

Inferno
In this land of burning light
The land aflame
The sky ignites
And as the flame consumes us all
Even the stars will fall.

To hold us down
And watch us drown
So far from the sun
The life inside
Sees all of this in black and white
The abomination.

Arise and ascend to the sea of stars
The inferno blocks our sight
On the greener side, untouched by flame
And bathed in fatal light
On a silent line
The static speaks
To remind us of our crime
A body of black
Hidden from sight
Swallows all the light.

To map our place in accordance with the stars
Explain and find out who we really are
A lonely rock spinning round and round
Switch our thoughts
To bring about.

Inferno
In this land of burning light
The land aflame
The sky ignites
And as the flame consumes us all
Even the stars will fall.
