Sojourner

There's but one faun in the sky
Who brooks like you and I
Who sings his lullabies off key
Who's mystified you
Nay, reminds you
Of how life used to seem

But now, we're together now
Yet somewhere I must somewhere find
That somewhere I should be
And given eyes to lead

It's I, sojourner, I
I, sojourner, lead

I know such tears are admirable
Brought out of year and sensible
All you'll sight is not your kind
He's setting up for nighty-night

Palindrome, palindromes
Can you hear belief?
Heaven's on the beam

I, sojourner, I
I, sojourner flee

In lieu of frozen flame
In step of temporal rage
As crucifixus I've played right thru this
This waning spell of strange
Yet somewhere I must somewhere find
That somewhere I should be
Given eyes to lead

It's I, sojourner, I
I, sojourner, I

Deus ex, unknown
Deus ex machine atoned
'Twas briar 'round the maypole
Sour milk disgraceful
And shot on the late-late show
Yet that they rose
And like the rue, he hath bloomed

Love each other
Love done true

I'm here with you
At home with you
If I'm younger (if I'm younger)
It's you that's moved (it's you that's moved)
This wizened man
Into the child

Seven's I can learn
Heavens I can offer
A resurrection won off forever
As free as you can free
Is free as I'll consider
On slivers of the gray
We're forever, forever
