I saw you
in the birds
I heard them
cry your name
Your tears were
in the river
Your passion
in that flame
Watching
over me
Like a shadow
in the night
Trying to give
me comfort
But just giving
me a fright
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
I saw you
in the birds
I heard them
cry your name
Your tears were
in the river
Your passion
in that flame
Watching
over me
Like a shadow
in the night
Trying to give
me comfort
But just giving
me a fright
This shadow
Is too hard
to explain
But it’s
reared it’s
ugly head again
Wailing and
moaning
and gnashing
it’s teeth
The only
way out
is to
hide
beneath
Hoping
and
praying
one day
it’ll
let me go
And I’ll
be freed
from
the pain
of this
enduring
sorrow
