The sun snuck up on me
Found a crack in my curtains
And gate-crashed my pigsty
Blazed up the bed, bombed up the pillow
Warmed my lips and pried open my eyes
Now, as you know
I'm usually immune to the charms of our star
Most days she burns me, I hide in the dark
But this was not an unpleasant feeling
The warmth upon my naked arms
The glow against my glaring gaze
The heat upon my heartbeat
And the mud on my skin would clear
My hair, unclean and receding
But thicker than usual
My bellicose belly had called a ceasefire
And seemed to be in retreat
I even liked my clothes again
I danced into a bright, new street
I sung into a blue sky
I felt fresh and vital
I was hungry for something
Filled with content and can-do
Where did it come from?
That curious feeling
On that morning I woke up with you
So, aurora on you, my big one
Beast from the East I'm yours, I surrender
I've been wrong all my dark and sunless life
So shine your malignant love on me
Strengthen my body, slow down my heart
Keep all your clouds and tides and winds
Today's the rebirth, today is the start
