latest for abstract companion... november 24, 2023

lyrics

she was nowhere
across the room
i saw her
in the morning
through late afternoon
only had to smile 

i’d go out walking
across the restless way
reeling and whispering to myself
like a new born thing
and i'd go out walking
across my mother's home
across the universe
if i only had the time


even less room for thoughts that die
or just a moment of mourning
so right i should go on
along with them

i'm all by myself
and something is missing
the colours run 

but in the faded light the silence looms
in my head there's none to blame
we break the dawn
then the sky was new
each breath stuttered out an angry tear
the night we didn’t have anymore
we disappeared out of sight
and i stared for the shades
we became unstuck
in the light shining through the rain
and then the fog split the sky
and i ran like hell
but i’m still the same 

though my mind is gone

to touch the edge
with the flame rising
not a silent ray
of desire on the face
to reach the sky beyond the grave
at the crossings of
the ground i have held
in my heart there is nothing
there is nothing


i could make it alone
i have lived here lonely
in spite of all the hurt 
and pain
at the fading eye
no one told me
i needed to run away
i would take my heart
i’ll be a step ahead of the storm
with blood in each hit of the sun
i will learn of life
in shades of gray

i will learn of life
in shades of gray
