Look at the skies changing colours
It feels nice when the clouds come to me
Telling secrets, you see, they’re not dead
They probe you and inspect
All the aspects of life from the moment you’re born
until you’re gone
Run far away to a land clean of hate
Where you'll feel all this numbness within
Fight it off and you’ll win back a life
No bones, all light
Your life is light because your shadow is there no more
One day we will find each other
And become sister and brother
We’ll share light and food and water
And become brothers and lovers
