Through the Silver Pores of Dreams

In a forest made of murmurs… I sleep beneath a whale of clouds Every leaf is an eye, every stone a name And the wind… he remembers my skin I walked backward into firelight Wearing a crown of moths My breath held music… but no one danced Let me crack open the sky! - with my voice of silver needles Let the oceans blink - through my ribs of glass I sing the bones of the world awake - I do! I do! My veins are made of ancient ink They write themselves across the dark Each heartbeat spells a prophecy In a tongue only stars can understand [CHORUS - returns louder, but tempo slows, more theatrical] Let me crack open the sky! - with my voice of silver needles Let the oceans blink through my ribs of glass I sing the bones of the world awake - I do! I do! You asked where the dreams go… when no one listens They nest in the lungs of wolves They dance in the ears of trees They wait… inside me Let me crack open the sky! - (crack it, crack it!) Let me sing through your bones, through your blood! I am not a girl… I am the thunder in the lullaby!
