Waking Under Stars

Wide awake in a room of stars

My hands still reach for what I saw

I carry the night into morning

A silver trace under my skin The ceiling opens like an ocean

And something holy pulls me in

I move through the day half weightless

Feet on the floor,

heart in the air

Every small light starts turning tender

Like the world knows that you are there I don't sleep,

I just fall deeper Breathing in the unseen fire Every nerve is

getting clearer Taking me higher

I'm dreaming awake

Eyes open, heart blazing Held in a beautiful ache Still reaching,

still breaking I'm dreaming

awake No fear

in the shaking Love is a wave I can taste And I

am not fading Now the streets and the sky are colliding Glass

and cloud in the same bright frame I hear your name in

the quiet between them And nothing around me stays the same

I am alive in the tension Drawn to the edge of the

sound

Every beat of my blood keeps saying There is more here than

what we found If this is a dream let it hold me

If this is real let it burn I have waited inside this

silence Now I turn I'm dreaming awake Eyes open,

heart

blazing Held in a beautiful

ache Still reaching,

still breaking I'm dreaming

awake No fear in the shaking Love is a wave I can

taste And I am

not fading Dreaming awake Dreaming awake

Still here, still burning
