Bloodflow |
Her eyes are closed now |
That final breath is near |
She lets go of my hand |
And I fall into |
A sea of tears |
In search for the trail |
That we were both riding |
Lost sometime ago |
Now I’m stranded on the mountain’s edge |
And there’s only one way back |
Down and down I go |
Into the ground where the bad seeds are sown |
And take route and pull me further in |
Long and long and longer it takes |
Good luck’s gone and there’s no more breaks |
Just the ground beneath |
That shakes and gives way |
Swallowed up home |
There ain’t much now I can pull |
No stuntman surprises |
Or Houdini-like disguises |
For death defying escape |
Avoid the tap on the shoulder |
From that one with a long black cape |
Just to see those eyes of her shine |
Is worth any sum or length of time |
That would fill that space where her love once flowed |
But the more I resist |
The further and further I drift |
Get swept out in the riptide |
Where a part of me wants |
To lie 'neath the ways of sorrow and tears |
Sink to the bottom and linger there the rest of my years |
Walk among the mild sea of bones |
Of my fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers |
Feel their blood flowing away |
Send the soul it’s way |
