White Noise Halo

Lyrics

Smoke on the river glass
Hands in the flood
Your name
Under my tongue

Cold silver wires
Pull through my chest
The night
Knows what I want

But I
Stand still
While the wolves
Circle slow

I won’t drink
From your shadow
I won’t sleep
Inside the fire

Every spark
Calls me closer
Still I crawl
Toward the light

Ash in the snowfall
Blood in the rain
Your echo
Wears my skin

Black velvet doorway
Open and warm
The dark
Breathes me in

But I
Bite down
On the wire
In my mouth

I won’t drink
From your shadow
I won’t sleep
Inside the fire

Every spark
Calls me closer
Still I crawl
Toward the light

Cathedrals burning
Inside my veins
Angels with broken teeth
Call my name

I shake
I bend
But I don’t
Break

I won’t drown
In your silence
I won’t bloom
Inside the grave

Every door
Leads back to you
Still I turn
Away

Smoke on the river glass
Morning at last
