Slip

As night fell, We drove out into the shadows.

When moon reached its crest, I stood before you.

Awake for the first time in years

The earth heaved below and the sky bellowed above.

We held each other, and dove into it

We pulled down mountains and drank the sea

Burned with the fire and walked upon the wind

Awake for the first time in years

You and I found, That the way home tore us apart

We held each other, and said goodbye

We rose from our ashes and floated upon the clouds

There, we cast out all we held dear, and became one

Alive for the first time in years

The sky opened and pulled us in

We held each other, and faded into the night
