Damaged Sunset

Along the green water
 The soldier sang spring moons away
 And the soldier had a brother who ran
 And he's calling out for blossoms
 Blame the way the sky looked
 When those planes fell down
 The ground the nines, by tens...
 There is beginning and another, again and again
 We won't rest here by the hour
 Only weightless when you let them
 So measure, measure on
 And feel the way I thought of you tonight
 From so many miles away
 Across time and reach of the engines and the furies
 Sunset damage by the mouthful
 The others hardly heard them
 They kept traveling in circles and
 Drifted back in to seven notches above
 "The top of the world" you called it
 Set the towers on fire
 Just to feel the space beyond
 You won't rest again here
 Burn up the hours, collect them by the pound
 And you won't know how it goes down
 And we won't know how it goes down
 Falling back to water
