• i k n o w it's real

some distant part of me remembers
where the missile silos are concealed
the place all endings are imagined
i know it’s real
i know it’s real

but there must be time left
to confuse the coordinates
where the whirling birds nest

but how can i climb when i’m tethered from below
a silhouette cut from a glowing window
the other life i’m letting go

call
i won’t turn around
i faced us backwards even then
so this can’t be happening now
it’s just an echo’s end
waterfall
can i be renamed
the old underground’s been locked and sold
songbirds bursting up from the snow

here
time returns
the days and nights you stole

can’t i have just one kiss
was it always so dangerous
was it all that first hit
and the fallout that preys on the sound
of the all clear

i sing a few songs to a tattered atmosphere
but more and more
i disappear

call out
i won’t turn around
all those telegrams were sent
from a phantom finding now
and if not now
when?
waterfall
can i be redeemed
blood vessels drinking up the cold
songbirds bursting up from the snow

here
time returns
the days and nights you stole

the valley’s beautiful tonight
i watch the stars take up
their shields
and no one else needs to believe it
i know it’s real
i know it’s real
