First Song

The Dark Leaves
Matt Pond PA - First Song
i've found a way
beyond the dark
filthy and humble
hands strike the spark
from cardboard cones
through screen door squares
my pockets of smoke
roll down the stairs
long braids of leaves
printed on knees
we fought through slep
those wars were sweet
i've fed my lines
blank gutted words
our shadows running
filled up with thirst
i found a way
the curtains part
failed song sung loudly
through holes in hearts
and i can't tilll why i'm sure
i am poisoned and i'm pure
these secrets we all share
keep our breath inside the air
the fint might slip
and streams could stall
a twisted compass
still finds the dawn
failed songs sung loudly
