SECOND SIGHT
Lyrics and music by Muriah Rose (Admin BMI 2016)

Do you lie at night on a bed of fire
With your eyes closed tight against the flame
Do you shut your ears to the music of the spheres
and the bright moonlight
that knows your name

'Cause the words go down like honey
But they burn your heart like a flame
You can't run away
from what the Spirit has to say
close your eyes and see the way

Can't help but see
these colors I see
They come over me
And flood my soul
The sky a pyre
with white horses on fire
And the Green Ghost spilling through the trees

And the words go down like honey
But they burn my heart like a flame
I can't run away
from what the Spirit has to say
close my eyes and see the way

I stand alone
A million stars are my bones
I will not be moved from my place
No one hears what I say
Come the day
they'll remember me and be dismayed

'Cause the words go down like honey
But they burn your heart like a flame
Don't run away from what the Spirit has to say
Or the bright moonlight that knows your name
And the bright moonlight that knows your name
And the bright moonlight that knows your name
