California Widow from Metanoia by fixer

Your California window must stay shut
Your California widow is all I've got
all I've got
Your light fixture will uphold me, but only for so long
Until your bulb grows lonely, up & gone
up & gone

But only then I'll notice
that the stars did shine above your head
It's not a question of focus
I would just like to know what's ahead
& how far I've got til the end

You've taken my belongings & all my guns
I have no line of defense & nothing won
nothing won
You're dancing like a demon; hellfire burns
at your feet cleaning my grave's old dirt
my grave's old dirt

But only then I'll notice
that you're buried underneath like me
It's not a question of focus,
just of when you'll stand up & leave
& only then I'll notice
that the stars are circles in repeat
& nothing is in focus
except you telling me you want to leave
& the sound of earth on your feet
