The Fallen

december
and we marched through the snow
and as the sky lit up around us, we fell
We all fell, under enemy fire.
and as I lie here now, I watch my friends.
my comrades, my fellow men
some fall like stones
some like stars from the sky
some like autumn leaves
some like tears
we all fall . . . but we don't all fall alike.

Don't Look Down

the histories of all the pawns and kings
lie washed up on the shores of time
the tide retreats taking everything
everything it doesn't leave behind
so don't look down
don't look down
it'll swallow you whole
it'll swallow us al

Only Child

Today you have become
my one
my one and only child
my comfort, my delight
my warmth now I am old
I need you now
I'll crush you to me
like a dull blade pressed
too close
until I'm bleeding
You've been my haven
but its all a thin disguise
I see you now a raven
a phantom bird with hungry eyes
You bring my meat
you bring me my poison
your crooked tongue
your crooked little beak
your crooked claws in
my wasted flesh, my dying bones
you're my private devils
my guardian angels

Light on the Hill
03:50
|

I have seen the light on the hill
burn and fade
it flickers still
but it won't take much to snuff this feeble flame
I have heard the sweet music of your love
thunder by
like a train in the night
and in the silence that remains I strain
to hear that sweet refrain
my hope is fading
my body's aching
my soul feels old
I can feel it breaking
I have smelt the fragrance of youth grow stale
like a flower in a vase it droops
it turns brown, falls to the ground
whats left is thrown out on the heap
I have tasted at the banquet of kings
and now I gag, I choke on all of these things
the wine it was tainted
now my stomach is sour
my hope is fading
my body's aching
my soul feels old
I can feel it breaking
I have seen the light on the hill
burn and fade
it flickers still
but it won't take much
to snuff this feeble flame
