lyrics

At the forest's edge we are
You and I, for decades
Gazing into nothing
Withering to the sounds of a dying world
You're screaming, choking
Tearing yourself asunder
And I stand there gazing into nothing

I’m yearning for silence
A bond that whilom bloomed
I’m wistful for sleep
A bond that we shared from womb
I’m longing for stillness
A bond that time has sent to wither
And the emptiness it brings
A bond that we only fathomed

Indifferent

We go along the trails in the forest
Where we played as children
It's quiet, still and peaceful
No pretense
No province
No prospect
Just you and I,
the silence, the wilderness

But I hoped as always to have your hand in mine
Our hands entwined,
our hands through the end of times
Thoughts lingering on promises unkept,
on words we left unsaid

I always knew that everything was a dream

And now I stand here with rope in hand
The noose tight around my neck
Final thoughts of why

Why I won't take the step
The step into silence
The step into stillness
A step into everlasting nothingness
