Stellar Sky

from Exploding Greens by Kendall Swan

lyrics

It's like a train of thought on a track that never ends
I try to fuck with it's course, but I always end up here again
You split your soul up and gave it to your friends
But you still take it out on the purple ocean
Some girl, a lover to love, or maybe just love the love
I watched you kiss her mouth and lick poison off her tongue
Who knew that winter could take the shape of a girl so young?
Pure snow that melts away and you wish that more would come

I spent every night last winter up in my room
Staring at nothing but the snow and the moon
But then the world exploded and my eyes are brand new
I see the hole in her arm, she'll hide the sun from you

How did I get down here at the bottom of the Nile?
With all these baby boys, they meld with a smile
They seem to see the purity preserved inside
Like Pharaoh and Jochebed were the ones that really died
Snap up, throw off the sheets, I'm just sweating in my bed
I've got to find a way to get this shit out of my head
Put on my shoes, hop on a train that's headed west
I see the sun coming up so maybe I can rest

But this train goes in circles, it always ends up back where it was
And I never recall the ride, just people getting off and on
This train's been thriving so I haven't slept in days
And when I think of getting off my body starts to shake

It just starts shaking like that night when the house burnt down
I sat crying in the ashes of my world burnt on the ground
Then Father turned his head towards the Stellar Sky
Saw the seasons all at once and just kissed this form goodbye.
