possessed by lorca

in the shadow of death
i taste innocence
change skins
and shed past sins

in the shadow of death
i live in the place
that everyone
wants to call home
and all i want to do
is go home
where boundaries stretch
into a time warp

in the shadow of death
i stare at the sun
pondering the meaning
of love and life
and get blinded
by the uncompromising glare

in the shadow of death
i, the dreamer
dream on
while the moon sings
silent lullabies
and martyrs are lulled
gently to sleep
