starving eyes

There's a dream in my brain
that just won’t go away.
It's been stuck there since it came
a few nights ago

and I’m standing on a bridge
in the town where I lived
as a kid with my mom and my brothers.

And then the bridge disappears
and I’m standing on air
with nothing holding me.
And I hang like a star,
glowing in the dark,
for all those starving eyes to see,
like the ones we’ve wished on.

Something Vague

Bright Eyes
