Decima

Leaving the choirs behind to sing
Of anything fair, of lilac spring
A dream of truce behind my eyes
A life of journeys will unwind
Emerge through idle air
Born under a troubled sign
Will it hurt to see me find
The long lost peace of mind
Darling, you had me here for a while
Breaks my heart to see you cry
In the wake of incomplete time
Darkness overthrows
The map of nowhere is in my hand
The roads are blurred, sojourner’s land
So take however long you want (but don’t forget, my love)
You pledged yourself to come along
You’re lost in reveries, holding back the tears
Faint sound of the wires
The butterfly is in the fire now
Lost in a memory, holding my hand
One heart’s in the ground
The other is veiled in silver all around
Born under a troubled sign
Will it hurt to see me find
The long lost peace of mind
Darling, you had me here for a while
Breaks my heart to see you cry
In the wake of incomplete time
