Quiet As the Sun's Reminder, Taking Me Away

[Burn]

Teary eyes and broken sighs,
Lifted high in the cloudless sky,

sun brightens the day, too much i'm afraid,
weakens my sight, forget what i've gained.

wind through the hair,
stirring the soul,
as vision gives an empty stare.

cold inside,
am i alive?
i could have died,
and fallen someplace quiet,
i only wanted to hide it,
once it was found.
and now that no one's around...
i can sleep, without a sound.

sun stirs the spirit,
i cannot run, and no i do not fear it,
the forest is calling, and i think i can still hear it.
memory echoes like spectre shapes,
feeling is all that's real, and all we take.

laying down the body on the grass,
forgetting the time, just let it pass.
seeing through blue sky, hidden stars,
if i stretched my withered will, i would travel far.

breeze guides my hair to and fro,
breeze takes the branches where they will go.
a hint of sunshine touches me,
within the cracks and sullen ease,
remembering what it was like to...

moment's time i will waste away,
mother, earth, won't you let me stay?

yet i'm feeling...
i'm feeling...

and...
inside,
i'm still alive.
inside.
i'm still...
inside.
