Asleep in the River - Lycia

Sparks fly upward again

Our dust in spires, spin

Ashes and snow in my eyes

Red embers paint blackened skies

My heart froze in the river

Winter water black and dead

I hide snow in my heart

And orange velvet fires in my head

Blue flames dance in the wood

I’d hold them on my tongue if I could

Silence is gold, and I sink

In the vastness of you, I shrink

Cuyahoga

Remember us in the ground

In thick brown earth we drown

Dried, broken, split our skin

Green blades grow, new again

Cuyahoga

I fell asleep in the dream

In icy arms in icy streams

My eyes are open, gather moss

In deep green heaven, we’re lost
