The end of era buries me in leaves
Heavy with grief
Lost in the changes that wash in from the sea
Lost in my need
I won't change for you;
You'll have to break me.
Even with my heart aflame
And lost in my need.
A prick of feathers,
A lightness in my head;
Humbled by pain
Words from the future that held me in my stead
Lost in the flame
I won't change for you;
You'll have to break me.
Even with my heart aflame
And lost in my need.
I won't lose myself
I will be permanent!
Even if identity's at odds with my grief.
(I've got a new reflection and it's eating me)
(I've got a new reflection and it rules my need)
My burning era falls out from from under me;
Crumbles like leaves.
Reform the mirror and smile through the tears,
Guard well my grief.
