Melt- Lock- Count- down

from At Sundown in the Blackout by kettleflower

lyrics

In the last phase of the dog days
Be my lover, be my Sunday
When the lockdown finally hits town
Show me your face, I’ll show you my face

Are we the chosen, or the broken?
We’ll take our chances, leave it open
When we breathe in, keep believing
There’ll be another day to wonder

At sundown in the blackout
I’ll be your stowaway, blow the lights out
feel the hollow in the darkness
Be my lover, in the silence

Won’t be long till we’re separated out
To be tagged and encoded, counted down

In the fallout from the meltdown
Be my bunker, gimme shelter
I’ll make the bread runs in the doldrums
Be your shoulder while it smolders

Feel the thunder, hear the sirens
keep yer head down, close the curtains
When the sulfur meets the summer rain
I’ll pull you closer, under cover

Won’t be long till we’re separated out
To be tagged and encoded, disallowed
We belong to the here and this and now
There's no heaven but the space between us now
