in cover of a dazzling fullmoon
|
I pace in the hall rendered harmless
|
by the memory of what I used to be
|
night's soon over I dread another sunrise
|
the pain of knowing I might have changed the world
|
I couldn't pass with a compromise
|
but the healing hand belongs to the living
|
and I am no longer the world will go on without me
|
I'm no longer
|
when I leave I'll feel a soft asuagement
|
and with minimal manliness
|
I'll bow to hail the light
|
when night's over
|
I'll sink into oblivion
|
but still I will remember
|
I could have changed the world
|
I couldn't pass with a compromise
|
'cause the healing hand belongs to the living
|
and I am no longer the world
|
is the same without me I'm no longer
|
