I Soar - The Chills

He rises with the air

He doesn’t have a care

The southern wind is warm in his hair

Breathless at the sight

The mountains on his right are crimson

As the sunlight’s fading

Silver sisters fill the horizon

The cream of autumn’s violet skies

At dusk the land will quietly shed its disguise

As both moons rise

Feigning surprise at their meeting of eyes

He has to talk to someone

Has to talk to someone

He’s choking with emotion but there’s nothing to say

There’s nothing to say

Nothing to say

Below me on the land

The tide of silver sand

Stretches at the shade of my hand

An eyesore in the dust

The carcsses of rust

Are laughing at the careless parking

Eye to eye aglow with horizon

Time to fly away for a while

Chase my shadow over the valley below

I soar alone

Our crumbling homes are all overgrown

They’ve gone

I saw them go

I watched them leave, my family have flown

I have to talk to someone

Describe it all the someone

Emotions are imploding but there’s nothing to say

There’s nothing to say

They’ve all gone away

All gone away

Eye to eye aglow with horizon

Time to fly away for a while

Chase my shadow over the valley below
