The Sun Rose its Red Eye on Me Today

from Mythical songs of a boy, his mother and his first love by Julianne Mason

/

lyrics

The sun rose its red eye on me today
I'm already one hundred miles ahead of where you lie sleeping away
When you wake up you'll be hungry, hungry for my love

I collect to my right and to my left
What I need, and what I don't I do forget
Don't think that what I took from you has left me yet

You have no concept of this fire that burns on the water
You gave me the wrong name and loved me like a father
Look to him now, to build your alter
Or your flowers and your grasses, become warehouses and ashes
And the ghosts in your mind, are your lovers in time
You don't need what you never needed before I arrived

Behold your sky my ancient son
And she will try to pull you in
But you were not made to be undone
So go on now, go, go and be a new one
