Hiraeth - Me The Tiger

Silent thoughts

The moments start wandering off,

So I watch.

As I stare into the night,

branches crack the sky.

I regret trying.

Heart removal

This is evil, every secret

buried in holes

Keep digging,

and find the stones that I tripped over.

When you left me on the ground

Feathers you stole

Let me drown in your eyes

Is it safe on this side?

Placement, Fibers

Each thread is what

separates me and you,

closest to the edge.

Humans leap off.

I reached out for you.

Humans leap off.

I reached out.

Did anybody hear your parting words?

I think about it all the time.

When you left me on the ground

Feathers you stole

Let me drown in your eyes

Is it safe on this side?

You’re far,

Watched you drift away

across infinite waves.

You’re to blame.

What arms will reach out in grace

and bring me across so we don’t separate?

Time is here now,

it’s neck in my hands.

Pressing harder…

Pressing like it’s an empty tube.

Time is here now,

it’s neck in my hands.

Pressing harder…

Pressing like it’s an empty tube.

Time is here now.

It takes your hand like a bible, erasing memories

You’re an empty tube.
