Armies in the Spring and Autumn

Caelus, a streak across the sky
having given the sword the shield
Still crying violent, colorless clouds
In white armor there was no other hand
Seven black blades in seven black days take away their names for the rain

Please, Jupiter
with wives of wings
Bring all your bands and pull me away

Neptune, monstrous horselord
to countless river valleys
Hammer your many hooves, breathe the hilltop, erode the mountain
In the clouds of Jupiter, we find gravity, now words have no meaning, just romantic apathy

Please, Jupiter
with bronze cuirass bring all your bands, and pull me away
Please, Jupiter
with wives of wings and bronze cuirass bring all your bands and pull me away

Jupiter

Summer in Flames

When it’s cold outside 
I had in mind I'd go home again
But now the sun is lighting up the fog and vision can't creep in
And I've waited all night for some way to see clearer
But I never found your hands
They were too busy keeping your silence in

I was born in the autumn 
Means I'll die in the spring
Consumed by the sky
That glows gold gone from me
And it's light outside at night
Because in my head is only heaven 
Their hearts chime the music alight
until the hour of eleven

I just wish that you had known
that you could have come home
I just wish you had known
that you could have come home

You made the snow fall hard where
we didn't think it could anymore
You turned the sea to ice just when we thought we were safe from it all
You couldn't find yourself in the harshness of this world
Here rises what's left 
of human machination

I just wish that you had known
that you could have come home
I just wish you had known
that you could have come home

I know the love I feel 
Is the same slow elation
But my smile’s drunk with emptiness
A spear at the heart of the world 
To burn and devour 
Every thing that I desire
The only thing I can feel

Death in the Spring and Autumn

Walking home late at night 
My breath forms clouds in front of me 
Aren't we all so temporary 
We vanish before it's warm 

The children usually play here 
in the park on Sunday afternoons 
But the sun's gone down in the city 
And home they've all returned 

It's a long and lonely walk into the night 
or the light depending on what you feel 
So my hand will stay in his as long as he'll let it 
But in the end we sleep alone
