when it rains, the town falls silent murmurs are spread like wildfire but not one does you justice

if i knew what you would do i would have sat and listened closer sat and understood your whispers

so take the warmth in collapsed veins and broken ties take solace in april showers

i. WEAVING PRINCESS (織姫) to hold devotion close i place my love into creations divine and i exist for their beauty

the shore glistens as the stars wash up monotony and magnificent work i know my life here is determined

ii. HEAVENLY RIVER (天の川) the two were destined by the universe and all the lovers among it a new life has blossomed within them

and soon they are torn apart despondent and forbidden do we not exist for love?

iii. COWHERD STAR BOY (彦星) led astray and across the universe thoughts scattered amongst the herds white horses in the waves of the river

and with a promise of achievement everything leads back to you to hold devotion close once again

a swan song of the nation it calls out to the living echoed in dreams and visions i lay waiting for a sign while you cower in the shadows white feather in the envelope a final goodbye until you drift into deep space and deep slumber

sweeping lights and rumbling bass forgetting my name and learning theirs only in the darkness of a party is the weight lifted from your shoulders if only for tonight

my sight is morphing and it's euphoric glowing trails at my fingertips the warmth is in my peripheral vision i sway with the shoving crowd i'm coming alive

slumped like a ragdoll filled with sacks of rice crude needle and thread limbs now crooked

changing shape is hard to tear those stitches to expel my rotting guts and break my ribs cinching
