Vapor Trail Lyrics

Vapor Trail

Stratospheric traces of our transitory flight
Trails of condensation
held
in narrow paths of white
The sun is turning black
The world is
turning gray
All the stars fade from the night
The oceans drain
away

Horizon to Horizon
memory written on the wind
Fading away,
like an hourglass, grain by grain
Swept away like voices in a
hurricane

In a vapor trail

Atmospheric phases make the transitory
last
Vaporize the memories that freeze the fading past
Silence all the
songbirds
Stilled by the killing frost
Forests burn to
ashes
Everything is lost

Washed away like footprints in the
rain

In a vapor trail
