Black Wine, Red Moon

I pour another glass and watch the barque unwind

The room remembers footsteps from a different time

The candles lean like secrets in the window's glow

And every shadow knows the names I used to know

Under the blood red moon

I raise my hand and smile

To every old ghost

Dressed in through this velvet mile

I let the ache arrive

Then let it pass me through

I'm revisiting the past with grace

Under the blood red moon

The bass is humming like a midnight prayer

The piano spills a silver ache into the air

I hear your laughing corners where the dust has loomed to stay

But I don't chase the sorrow, I just let it sway

Under the blood red moon

I raise my hand and smile

To every old ghost

Drifting through this velvet mine

I let the ache arrive

Then let it pass me through

I'm revisiting the past with grace

Until the blood red moon

If memory is a graveyard

I came here dressed in light

With a bruised and steady heartbeat

And a little borrowed night

No curse could make me flinch now

No hollow name undo

The way I've learned to bow

To what I've outlived too

Under the blood moon

I raise my hand and smile

To every old ghost

Drifting through this velvet mile

I let the ache arrive

Then let it pass me through

I'm revisiting the past with grace

Under the blood red moon
