SILENT FIELD
‘Still there are crumbling leaves
Back to fuel our reveries
Cold mornings I’d spite the wind
Whispers of what could have been’
Follow woe this night, from foyer strode
Carried the day
O’er shoulders numbed by neglect
Follow haste this night, the mouldered road
Wandered away
The smoke wanes your silhouette
Tears fallen slower than the sun
Evenfall you couldn’t outrun
Follow death this night, the harvest ends
Kept the decay
‘Neath those orbs that signified
Follow fear this night, and shear the tress
Rain would not stay
From quotidian, ne’er could hide
Tears fallen slower than the sun
Evenfall you couldn’t outrun
Follow me this night, you could atone
Lost memories
You are shaped by what you loathe
Follow hope this night, you’re not alone
Sorrow is freed
From the mire whence seeds had grown
Tears fallen slower than the sun
Evenfall you couldn’t outrun
Of these solutions there is one
Vessels are closed, healing’s begun
‘Still and tranquil ‘neath the sun
Suffer ‘til the deed is done
As darkness falls, I ever stay
As I’m the one who couldn’t wait’
