Common Ground

In the reddest night

This movement is a spin

I cannot see it end

I know it’s just an oversight

We’re tangled in the vine

Of sound around our lives

And here we find the common ground

Of how long i have gone

To dance up to the dawn

To make the aura solid now

The noise across the sea

The scene that’s drawing me

Why so far away?

There’s an autograph

Material i hold

To prove me to my own

Recollection of that sacred space

If only there inside

We keep it in our sights

That future is so far away

Why so far away?
