And when I turned around I saw it float above the ground Suspended in the air Into a flash a light Outside of time and space and sound The spaceship disappeared And past the neighbor's house He placed a hand around my neck A finger to the mouth The thing I hadn't seen A mere reflection in the sky A symptom of the drought The fabricated sign His shoulders laying bare Beneath the figure in the night He's burning at both ends I tried to ask him why I turned my body to the light A way to make amends And when he shot around I saw the side I can't unsee A creature of the night The ones who cannot meet The mere reflection in his eye A thing that never should have been When the opposites collide
