The Night And The Silent Water

Lyrics

And so you left us  
Jaded and gaunt, some September  
Wilted with the seasons  
But hidden inside the delusion  
I saw you eyes, somewhere  
  
Devoid of death  
The aura poises amidst (the storm)  
In solid tears I linger  
A parlor glade, moonlit sorrow  
Lonely resting pools  
Relics of the moon-dogged lake  
Whisper: "All your words are miss given"  
  
Am I like them?  
Those who mourn and turn away  
Those who would give anything  
To see you again  
If only for another second  
  
Your face was, like the photograph  
Painted white  
We did not speak very often about it  
What does it matter now?  
  
Cloak of autumn shroud  
I gaze, dim ricochet of stars  
I reckon it is time for me to leave  
  
You sleep in the light  
Yet the night and the silent water  
Still so dark...
