Wind In The Wires











Wind in the wires 
It's the sigh of wild electricity 
I'm on the edge of a cliff 
Surpassing 
Comfort and security 











But here comes a gale 
A crippling anger 
Sea birds are blown 
Into the rocks 
Grace is lost to thunder 












Thunder 
Pressure 
Getting 
Lower 










But see her waters break 
Rain falling to the sea 
Into a granite wave 

A unit 
A family 











It's just a sigh 
Just a sigh 

This wild electricity 
Made static by industry 
Like a bird in an aviary 
Singing to the sky 
Just singing to be free










To be free

Ghost Song



While I'm asleep
My spirit crawls out
Of my belly button
And goes down to the sea








 
To gather the wind
The wires and the shore
To wander the hills
Like a day gone before

When beauty was in season
Oh! Beauty in season!
Endangered by reason
Great love with no law







Today I woke
And my spirit was gone
Still on the shore
Where he truly belongs

So I call
For him
Across
The wind
