Andromeda lightning
Sit on your laurels, your pride
Stare up at the sky
Tell me what is waiting for me?
Tell me what is waiting for me
On the other side of yesterday and tonight.
Venetian skylights
And moody midnights
Sing panicked harmonies.
I will live today
Andromeda lightning
I will love today
Andromeda lightning.
Put your arms around me.
Oh, put your arms around me.
You cut so deep blessed priestess of the darkness
Blessed priestess of the lost ones, the lonely ones, the only ones to remember
Andromeda lightning.
Shadow-sweet September
Tonight I will live
Andromeda lightning
Tonight I will love
Andromeda lightning
And the stars will cry.
Yes, the stars must cry.

This is from what I like to call my iTouch Collection. I couldn't sleep late at night so I wrote this one, along with a couple others, on my iTouch so I could calm my mind and finally get some sleep.

Favorite Quote:
"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
