October Song

Lifelike The images of daylight In amber and fireflies Over shrike's harpoons Timelines Merging through crossfire Guts and vermiculite We were bulletproof At the end of the world, I'll be mulling it over Was it that scary or was it October I'm on a tearing now that I'm older Foraging berries for birds that adore ya Finite Moments that are bite-size Corroding with the grapevines That I'm walking through Hindsight Is torture to a highlight Timber from an open fire To an open wound At the end of the world I'll be harvesting clovers And grains that'll spare me Until it's October Thickets of envy Where dartboards are posters Existing for centuries The luck of a loner Maybe there's time to be larger than life Should I claim my trophy or keep rolling the dice? Cos I turned sincerity into a ruse And I hit my head before I was falling October's just a morning overdue
