This Side of Hell

Our heads are sinking
Deeper still into the ground
Your freckles map
A treasure waiting to be found
And I know happy
Is a word with too much sound
But we'll let
It stick around

It's been too long
The night is moving towards the dawn
Another song is gone
But still the dance goes on
You hold me close
And I know that this can't be wrong
It's true

Oh sugar sweet
Your sticky fingers bleed
Both smiles and joy
Just like the donuts that we eat
So stay awhile
And let the Sun sleep

We save the talk
And let the silence fill us through
Inside your eyes
I see I have always known you
Another life, another time
When space was new
Perhaps
You feel it too

The changes in your breath
Let me know it's time
Time to return
To Earth and you back to your shrine
My fingers bring
Your laugh and I'd be glad die
Right here

Oh sugar sweet
Your sticky fingers bleed
Both smiles and joy
Just like the donuts that we eat
So stay awhile
And let the Sun sleep
