A Whisper

Endless

Agony,

Watch me

Cry.

 

Empty

Ebony

Takes over

The sky.

 

Cry of

Misery,

Pray an end

For I.

 

Lightless

Blissfully

Watch it all

Go by.

 

Search for an end,

Do you even have a prayer?

Pray for a god,

Do you even know he's there?

 

Listen, listen

For old amongst the young.

Careful, careful

The day is still not done.

 

Can you hear the wind?

It calls unto you-

Cries for attention,

But I bet you never knew.

 

You sail off into bliss,

It pours its heart into your sail.

You think that it will always be,

The wind will never fail.

 

Can you hear its cries,

It's shrieks for help?

Can you hear it whine?

Can you hear it yelp?

 

A whisper to your ear,

But you let it go-

If it dies again,

Only you will know.

 

Search for an end,

Do you even have a prayer?

Pray for a god

Who you know is always there.

 

Listen, listen

For old amongst the young.

Watching, watching

For death will soon have won.

 

When the earth turns to dark

And the wind dies down to none,

Smile unto the skies

For you know that you have won.
