Reaching

Wake in a cold sweat
Visions of a gold path
While barely there yet
Rewinding, playing, cassette

Marked by silver in a copper body
Shimmer when I oxidize
Speak to you with dial tones
Pick up the call, receive my alibis

Sleeving you up like a blade
You are goosebumps on my skin
With whispers dancing
Interlaced

If you're the light I am a battery
Among shadows until you switch me on
Broken bridge over oceans inconceivable
I cannot dream until I feel you tangible.
