Cuckoo from Cinders by Larkk

It’s not him
Every single time
Their masks pulled back
None of them are mine

Tried to un-know this
Vast euphoria
Cornered in a corner low
Claustrophobia

I’m alone here all the time
Every songbird sings
Every creature wails for you
Every moonbeam wails for me

Is it simple for me
To sleep in silent homes?
Is it better for me
That I miss your bones?

Soon I will control myself
Solitude a salve
Soon I will be strong enough
To let the lightning from my mouth

Skinny hallways narrow minds
Paint a smile on good
That old girl is far behind
The new one’s understood

Hey hey, hollering for you
Hey hey, hollering cuckoo
Hey hey, hollering for you
Hey hey a hollering cuckoo

Lying on the bed alone
Further from the start
When you’re far I must recall
I hold both our hearts
