lights upon the open skies

lasting, ever fading eyes

on the motion above the ground

a moving machine

the space of life

in a few times over god

we don't speak

for it is beautiful

i think often a truth

about the world we are

and the boys we aren't

all in a vacuum

there's flight in a bottle

a sinking ship on the moon

dying wishes of the platoon

oh to be here again

there's faith in our bones

one left to die alone

till the dogs leave you

there'll be once a home

on my shoulders is a place

where god meets us all

in an effigy of idioms

over the sea of beasts

the light moving across

the open night skies

sleeping in a sweetner

for what it's worth

something about airplanes

move my faith in virals
