SUNDAY PRAYER, cxci
time & time again
how many days, how many nights
can i be heavy, can i be light
tonight, who am i on the inside?
shining peace covered by darkness
or an endless cape of tar dressed
like a tart, a farce of feathers
starlight swears the empty space
can't go on forever
time & time again
i return to hope. i return to dreams
i have dreamed for as long as i can remember.
it is december. i am david. i gave it
everything i had, and i'll gladly give it more,
but for how many days, how many nights
can i be heavy, can i be light
tonight, who am i on the inside?
i am i am
you are a birthday,
deep with the dayshine
from dusk to moonbreak,
the dust of keepsakes
time & time again, i am i am
