Trembling Blue Stars

Half-Light

It looks so pretty as the light fails

Late November twilight

The day’s about to close its shutters

On come all the street lights

And I feel a little less defined

Though the dying light can find me

Lost and feeling fragile

In the drifting there is beauty

I’ll be a shadow for a short while

Sometimes you need to turn down the glare

It looks so pretty as the light fails

Faltering, departing

Stillness now resides in my sails

I’ll surrender to the evening

The darkness will grow 

And flow through my veins

I’ll let it and let go of the reins

Let go of the reins

Let go of the reins

Let go of the reins
