My Name

Three and a half hours to the end of night
We cross and paint in tender smiles
We know our faces from a flash
And in the white corridors we move afar

This lost sense has spiraled back
From the corners of a partial dream
Shadows scattered along its walls 
Transpiring a faulty scene

In it I see myself dancing in the dark
I cross a pathway to the end of time
I’m cross with the ferocity of a cat
I filter the sins of the world through intoxicated eyes

And there at the top of the cliff I look down at my regrets
Monsters in the abyss fighting like unfocused specks
Of passions uncontrolled and words untold
Oh, I wish I could turn time back

But the tide is too high now
And nevertheless in the wings of these birds
I place a hope that doesn’t belong
I watch it fly far away from here

And away it goes, my name written on it
The soon to be a memory to forget
The falling and all it brings within
A body crossing through the air

It is here where I finally find myself
It is in these ten seconds that I see it all
And know that it is now too late

But the wings still carry on my name
Somewhere else
Far away from here
Far away from me…
