Gradually the leaves turn to gold They offer me the promise of an end Still I know the end won’t come And I’ll burn in the fire of fall The ocean eats the rays of light Cold at heart I just stand and stare As they break through the clouds Into the black they disappear Exhausted I sleep without any relief Nothing changes but the scenery Once again we stumble only to find there is no one there to break the fall Everything’s gone I accept my fate Enduring hate in the silence of this womb The irony is that history repeats itself, tiring the soul. How I bleed for you, how I bleed for you Silence me with sweet stories Wrap me in memories no longer allowed I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe, lie and seethe Thought it be peaceful, oh how I bleed, how I bleed You pierce me with your ice cold stare How I envy your beauty, your being And how you never really care that I’ll love you forever eternally The omnipresent rumble of the sea conceals the pain from everyone but me When words aren’t enough I want to trust that time will heal, but I’ve lost all faith You blind me with lies that I want to believe Open my eyes to the truth I can feel You pierce me with words that I have to believe, have to believe The golden blaze of April meadows Omen of dark times ahead The life it brings means nothing to me Speaks of what’s not to be Forgotten mirrors, covered up Reflecting ghosts of the past Shadows dance across the glass Before fleeing into the dark As I walk through the swaying grass On hilltops lingering with long light I know that I’ll remember this forever
