Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 Sirens under pillowlight Footsteps marching through the night Closed-eye banners, velvet flags Dreams advance in silent drags Windowshades become the walls Heartbeat drums in hallway halls City sleeps with open mouth Night unfolds and pulls us south Pre-Chorus Lock the breath and count to ten They are here and here again Chorus REM siege, hold the line Shadow regiments in time Every sleeper, every street Falls to synchronized heartbeat REM siege, break the day Turn the bright world ghost and grey Waking falters, dream takes lead Kneel before the midnight creed Verse 2 Hush of boots on memory Stars arrayed in infantry Lanterns made of borrowed fears Spill their oil in our ears Doorways bloom with velvet teeth Moonlight forges chains beneath Names are taken, tongues are tied Truth is folded, dream applied Pre-Chorus Lock the breath and count to ten They are here and here again Chorus REM siege, hold the line Shadow regiments in time Every sleeper, every street Falls to synchronized heartbeat REM siege, break the day Turn the bright world ghost and grey Waking falters, dream takes lead Kneel before the midnight creed Bridge Raise the pulse, unseal the eye Cut the tether, learn to fly Beat the drum that’s truly yours Shatter all their velvet doors Final Chorus REM siege, not this time I reclaim my inner sky Every cadence, every beat Breaks beneath my waking feet REM siege, fade away Sunrise burns your paper sway I return the breath you stole— Open light, rejoin the soul
