Ether

When it feels like you've been cancelled

like someone took your breath away

to replace it with ether

and you stagger in headwind all day

it's too easy to go crazy

way much harder to stay clear

though you're pleading (come save me)

no one or nothing comes near

refrigerate your fire

The grim faces that you're passing in your free fall from the ground

won't remember, won't be asking

and they won't be making a sound

hold your soldiers

and keep them in the woods

until it's over, it will be

wait see

the sun sets

and morning

puts you back into place

refrigerate your fire.
