Dead Letters

Vexation

Internal void

My dreams are getting darker and darker

And darker



Dim my lights

Time is frail

You shut my mind

But oh well

Trapped and choked

Erased my trail

Split the chest

My heart couldn't feel more pale



Only once could I see clear



Vexation

Internal void

My dreams are getting darker and darker

And darker



This life before me

Its blood runs so still

The call of the bird

The song that makes the hours go



The change inactive

Dead letters

Form these words



Dim my lights

One by one

The sordid pale

Broken run

Confined in escape

On burnt grass

Below the crest

Lier in wait for the ending



Only once could I see clear



My dreams are getting darker and darker

And darker



This life before me

Its blood runs so still

The call of the bird



Songs that make the hours go
