Life,
Precious as it might be...
I've constructed a fortress made
entirely of mirrors and misdirection...
Cover me over with melody
Cover me over with time...
I'm going to buy one final boat,
And this one will have flare...
God is the basic good,
The rest, one, has to learn alone...
I travel all the woods,
I sleep in every burrow...
Remember that roof at the top of the hill
where the silence grew thick...
Silence enfolded my heart
as your mysterious request for forgiveness...
Of all the cheating and the lies I hear everyday,
Of all the silent screams without the words to...
Bright lights, brighter than the sun, than the...
Where have I gone? Has my time come so soon...
Behold the seconds ticking away,
while the minutes pass by...
People have picked me up
from a dusty shelf...
