Sing It To The Ground
Dérive

She said, “don’t the growing fires look pretty in the night?”

I said, “They’re getting closer as ash graced our heads like halos glowing white.”

“I’d like to stay longer,” she replied.

We sat and watched the city set the world alight.


I’m lying sick in bed

Nursing the demons out of this tired head

Ruminating on every last word she said

And running down the paths to which she led


Everything I learned and everything I knew

Put to test in one sickly afternoon

Felt the gardens and felt the sound

Sang it to the sky and sang it to the ground


Sing your sweet.

Sing your sweet.


What towering structures scrape the sky?

What fires made all these rivers run dry?

Glowing lights block the stars from sight.

And all the grass dies.



What trees did these leaves forget?

Left which branches held high?

And forgot what boughs that the seeds might beget?

And left arms pointed to some fragile sky?


There’s going to be fire in this town

There’s going to be blood across the ground

There’s going to be some sickly dying sounds

There’s going to be some hateful birds flying ‘round


Sing your sweet.

Sing your sweet.


The birds don’t fly like they used to.

The flowers don’t grow like they used to.

The stars don’t shine like they used.

The waves don’t crash like they used to
