Autumn descends and
I’ve been alone
Lost in the rain, said
When you grow old
Will you find me
Sweet harmonies
Wandering soul
Caught far from his home
Sing to yourself
Let fervency carry your tone
Don’t let it go
Wakeful at night
Trapped in my mind
There’s nowhere to go
Shelter your eyes
Time passes by
We’re not going home
In the ashes of everything
The world, it turns to gray
In this cold
We’ve no words to break the silence
But the silence is a vessel
To the soul
Softly, you plea to a lyricless hymn
Chasing a gleam that glows ever so dim
When there’s nowhere to run and the quiet has grown
One single word’s all you need
To make your voice known
It’s your morning now, so open your eyes
Can you even say it this time?
If I had the strength to surmise it
Then maybe I could feign goodbyes
Softly I plea to a lyricless hymn
Chasing a gleam that glows ever so dim
Now there’s nowhere to run and the quiet has grown
But one single word’s all I need
Can you hear me now
I don’t have the answer
But these words they come out
And spiral towards the center
Of these senseless things
The silence that it brings
But my heart, it still sings
Waiting for something, said
