Allegra Krieger - Came

Waiting on some consolation
For the unraveling sense that you're going nowhere
Thought you had another bottle in the refrigerator
But you don't see it there
Walk to the gas station and dish out some cash
The night moves as slow as a lifetime moves fast
When the moon comes to a circle
You're reminded of your body's stark utility
Stagnantly staving off heavy summer air
Hanging around in the humidity
Touching yourself staring up at the ceiling
Desperate to deliver some kind of feeling
To the ether to connect yourself with something
Greater than grinding your teeth in your sleep
Ecstatic joy like a work of art
Cutting open your skin to enter your bloodstream
Well now you're a star or a god or a flame
Fuck where you're going
Forget from where you
Came
Burning wings
I want you to come inside of me tonight
To feel some light grow from within
The cycles stretch, though never bend
Remind me again
What are you doing here anyways?
Holding your breath, like a life holds a death
The past you're tied to pays for the ride through
Forever on burning wings, with one way out
And I want you to turn me down
Turn me around, push me into freedom's embrace
Hey let me get a good look at that face
One last time
