The Water Choir's Drowning

Seems so impeccable
Still, something's gone wrong
Baby's grown dumb
Not a word's been spoken for so long

The air's so thick
And far too weak to carry my voice
Across the table
No use screaming out my last choice

And how the fountains
Sang in bubbling harmonies
We drowsed beneath the trees
A braid made of our knees

I took a mind train to find
What I'd been disowning
But found no music
Think the water choir's drowning

You lit the sky
With a touch of your dreams
And when it turned too black
I took comfort knowing
Black is every colour shining
Brightly at once

And how the fountains
Sang in bubbling harmonies
We drowsed beneath the trees
A braid made of our knees

I took a mind train to find
What I'd been disowning
But found no music
Think the water choir's drowning
