Stranger Beings

Crazy blood-stained sky.

Fire we've forgotten. come
Soon. raging on our land.
We, the cursed children
Of a dying father.
Dig us deep in the soil.

Cold our hands.
Joined our bones.
Fire came today.
Fold our hands.
Lay our heads down
For a thousand years.
Where are you shining star,
Fire on the wind?
Cover our eyes with
A black layer of ash
That never goes away.

Father, come back.
We are stranger beings.
Attenuated.
Blessed in all our shapes.
Our skin melts like water.
Away beneath us.
Rising up forever.
Rising up forever.
We are stranger beings.
Made of pure light.
Singing songs.
God came down from heaven
And closed our eyes.
We rise up forever.
