Waiting for the spindly fingers of time
to crush my bones

Wandering like a raging light
a star-bright heart is rushing home

From this moment we are cast adrift
blinded by starlight

Swimming through a sea of ticking clocks
Searching for the island of her smile
Dreaming of the sunrise of her fiery embrace
