Denim

Keep me in the fold of your dreams

Keep me where the angels can watch me

Tie off all my ends and help me swim

To your island

I've crawled here from the coldest planet

I think to wear your heart

Close to my skin like denim

To warm the dark

And decorate your arms

I can hear the stars

Humming in the dark

Silence watched the clock

And in my sleep I held you

Finally the fall receives the scene

Finally your ghost and past for feasting

Dry off all the pain

And touch the seams

To feel you healing

I've called you from the bones inside a tin can

I've thought of you while hanging upside down

I hold it to my eyes

To form a lark

And decorate your heart

I can hear the stars

Humming in the dark

Silence watched the clock

And in my sleep I held you

I can see the stars
