Marrow

By MOON ontherun
From the album Traces of Time

It’s the Ame of year
when everything is blooming
Blackbirds singing,
promising better days

The glow on the street
fractures winter’s shadows
A sparkling city
reflecting hopeful light

But still
nothing of this seems to lighten my mind
Still holding on
to darker sounds of winter

My soul
unable to curve up towards the sun
A twisted frame
and I don’t know how to fix me

I caught sight of you
quietly standing smoking,
looking to me
as though you hadn’t slept a while

You read my mind
and see the same old story
“You’re too lost in thought “
leaving life behind”

But still
Nothing of this seems to lighten my mind
Still holding on
To frozen thoughts of winter

My soul
Unable to curve up towards the sun
A twisted self
And I don’t know how to fix me

But still
Nothing of this seems to brighten my mind
A broken stem
But you can always fix me
A broken stem
But you can always fix me

In The Heart

By MOON ontherun
From the album “Traces of Time”

I must be high
Roaming the shore with the wind in my sails
Struck by luck, I don’t know
All I can hear is the song of the sun

The Russian blue
Suddenly hit by the moon on the run
I beg myself, don’t give up
All I can see is the veil of the dark

Shaken up
thrown into
Olden skies
Like a leaf

Lighten up
Slide into
Moony nights
Like a stone

Sleeping Aght
All I can dream is the colour of sand
In a misty cropland
Sailing away on the breath of the rye

The Martian red
Dressing the house in a curtain of flames
And my hands are burning
All I can hear is the sound clock

Shaken up
thrown into
Olden skies
Like a leaf

Lighten up
Slide into
Moony nights
Like a stone

Marble minds
Glide away
Lock them up
In this heart of hearts

Prepared

By MOON ontherun
From the album Traces of Time

Someone gave me
a message that would change me
My eye was blind, my heart was numb

Someone judged me.
It’s something that I won’t be
I’ve come prepared,
my door is shut,
and I’m not easy prey 

Now nothing can touch me
Now nothing can move me
When everything’s crazy
I know what is in me
I’ve been to the bottom
I’ve seen how it can be
Now nothing can ever touch me 

Someone caught me
pretending how it could be
My sacrifice is all I’ve got

Someone wasted
the chances that we tasted
Now I’m prepared,
I’ve learned so much,
and I’m not easy prey
 

Now nothing can touch me
Now nothing can move me
When everything’s crazy
I know what is in me
I’ve been to the bottom
I’ve seen how it can be
Now nothing can ever touch me 

Now nothing can touch me
Now nothing can move me
When everything’s crazy
I know what is in me
I’ve been to the bottom
I’ve seen how it can be
Now nothing can touch me
Now nothing can move me
Now nothing can ever

For A While

By MOON ontherun
From the album Traces of Time

The moment is a line of blue and draws so far ahead
It will paint you tomorrow
I slip away into the flowing lights
and open doors
Follow me, then you may forget
for a while

Weʼre walking by
The little things running away
Weary hands and faces
and humming sounds from all the hidden places
Waiting for something or someone

Our silhouettes
in the great atlas of life
Hard to define, still breathing
So many signs mixing up the meaning
of wanitng for something or someone
to stay a while

The wind will wash away our silly tunes and poetry
Like a bird in a meadow
A wilderness of half forgotten words
and broken spells
Close your eyes
then you may forget
for a while

Weʼre walking by
The little things running away
Weary hands and faces
And humming sounds from all the hidden places
Waiting for something or someone

Our silhouettes
in the great atlas of life
Hard to define, still breathing
So many signs mixing up the meaning
of wanitng for something or someone
to stay a while

A falling shade
on the pathway as we run
And with the sun painting us red
We donʼt mind what was done and said
Framing a thought
Making it last
just for a while

A falling shade
on the pathway as we run
And with the sun painAng us red
We donʼt mind what was done and said
Framing a thought
Making it last
just for a while
