In the Custody of Stars

I'm one smithereen
Blown clear out of focus
I'm floating alone
I'm lost in your lens

So much goes unseen
I live in your bokeh
Just color and tone
Don't think of me now or my sins

I caught a moon canoe from Canaan
I cause you pain, I know I do
I'm far away, too gone for saving
Out here in the blue

I feel like the night
Is running a fever
Zoom in on this shot
Someday when you're old

Somewhere in your light
Somewhere in your ether
You may see a dot
This story we left halfway told

I caught a moon canoe from Canaan
I cause you pain, I know I do
I'm far away, too gone for saving
Out here in the blue

Our future's gate
Wore a sign that said
“Beware of god”
It was hard to say
What any soul could make of that

I caught a moon canoe from Canaan
I cause you pain, I know I do
I'm far away, too gone for saving
Out here in the blue
In the custody of stars
