Don't Lose Yourself

Waking to a world of white windiness
The death of the word was upon us

Painted eyes of the holy ones

Don't let yourself be lost
Don't lose yourself
Don't lose yourself, don't lose yourself
The romantic air of your eye patch

We pet the mammoth day of tears
Don't lose yourself be lost

Admired your divine tattoo
And the discipline of the wind
And the crucifixion of the rose
For staring straight into the sun
Don't let yourself be lost
Staring at the entrance to the mind
We see less and less all the time, dear
Don't let yourself be lost
Don't let yourself be lost
I had prayed for your wounds to close
Tiger ointment and a cosmic collision
Don't lose yourself
We made love on the rising tide
I felt my voluntary blindness
We dreamt of all friendships kind

I clung there and I danced with you, silent
Just look at this mess we are in
Don't lose yourself
Called me across the room
Necessity conquers fear

Dreaming of the death of the sun
We touched the blood of the black cat
Don't lose yourself be lost
Don't lose yourself
In the flickering light we were laughing

Don't lose yourself
We smelled the perfume of the waxing moon
Don't lose yourself, don't lose yourself
Don't lose yourself
Dreaming, we were stones in black stillness

Don't lose yourself
Don't lose yourself, don't lose yourself

We slept in the shadow of a cedar tree
Don't lose yourself
Don't let yourself be lost
Don't lose yourself, don't lose yourself
