Here we are Together in this darkness Enveloped in the Deepest shade of black Connected through this misery Lingering in the air Lingering in the air The burden of goodbye A heavy ringing in my ear Its a silent reminder An afterthought of sorts Bad dreams, hollow sleep Of dark rooms, empty homes And things without names Memories of murder The shades that fell The shades that fell I wouldnt prefer to answer The question The last quiet cord To be severed Nothing to take with you Nothing left for you to keep The music is over, theres noone here Its snowing heavily I cant even see my breath escaping Never to return The burden of goodbye A heavy ringing in my ear Its a silent reminder An afterthought of sorts An afterthought of sorts I lingered around them, Under that benign sky Watched the moths fluttering Among the heath of harebells Listened to the soft wind Breathing through the grass And wondered how anyone Could ever imagine unquiet slumbers For the sleepers in that quiet earth.
