Across The Wind

Across the wind I heard the sound of someone’s searing soul,

which left its love-struck fortress, seeking whole and leaving hole,

and searching for a love to match the one that time had stole.

Across the wind, I heard the sound of someone’s searing soul.

 

Across the wind, I heard the plea of peoples’ plaguing pangs,

which fail for seeming sympathy instead torments, harangues.

They mock the depth of destiny, how my life in balance hangs.

Across the wind, I heard the plea of peoples’ plaguing pangs.

 

Across the wind I heard the hark of humans’ heavy hearts,

which Tyranny and Blasphemy had slowly torn apart.

The Hark- it woke me from my peaceful slumber with a start.

Across the wind, I heard the hark of humans’ heavy hearts.

 

Across the wind I heard the moan of mankind’s murd’rous mouth,

was parched with pain, the passioned Flame, extinguished by the Drought,

but has never felt the love I feel for you, I have no doubt.

Across the wind, I heard the moan of mankind’s murd’rous mouth.

 

Across the wind I heard the mourners carrying you away,

heard mine own tears hit virgin ground, which I knelt on in pain.

Heard angels cry, heard demons sigh, their fate had took its toll.

They made resound, the solemn sound, of someone’s searing soul.
