Empathina

Junebug sings, hummingbird sighs
at her minstrel below
Day erodes, night divides to find
two lovers entwined

Sun is spent, and tainted blue
as it melts through the ice
The laughing fool, he points at you,
says Welcome to my device

Empathina, ease the pain
Spare these souls, let them dream again
Empathina, of angel hands
Save me from myself

Jester screams for a nation's death,
children cry for the dawn
Their shadows trade fearful threats
as they stumble on

Breathless boy lights his cigarette,
wipes sweat from his brow
Softened girl, with passions spent, cries
what have I done now

Empathina, ease the pain
Spare these souls, let them dream again
Empathina, of angel hands
Save me from myself
