Echoes Remain for Ever

歌詞

Autumn leaves that collect weight in the ashes of Summer Are cracked and broken by my intruding step Foreign thoughts that invade my questioning Of death's cold cold waiting No bait will deter the ancient stalker Whose colour I'm not sure of Who's walked between this park And with icy fingers prepared this morbid corridor of bracken To take my steps closer there all the time Then your fingers - hard and comforting Write softly through my hair All that we're afraid of in each other All that may die between us without death to take the blame To play games so unprepared To dance round fires unguarded Tears become blood of sorrow And my pulse keeps time so badly with the tune you play to me My steps down streets that remain unchanged but change so many Will just vanish like yesterday Don't think dark thoughts you tell me Yet all our fate waits prepared in darkness And my hand will fumble for the door Whose handle is too high for me Whose wood is from those mighty trees The trees that lay down their leaves so recklessly My light remains flickering in Autumn And musky smoke from blazing bonfires Will rise like incense from the funeral pyre In preparation
