Damaged Sunset

Along the green water The soldier sang spring moons away And the soldier had a brother who ran And he's calling out for blossoms Blame the way the sky looked When those planes fell down The ground the nines, by tens... There is beginning and another, again and again We won't rest here by the hour Only weightless when you let them So measure, measure on And feel the way I thought of you tonight From so many miles away Across time and reach of the engines and the furies Sunset damage by the mouthful The others hardly heard them They kept traveling in circles and Drifted back in to seven notches above "The top of the world" you called it Set the towers on fire Just to feel the space beyond You won't rest again here Burn up the hours, collect them by the pound And you won't know how it goes down And we won't know how it goes down Falling back to water
