Lyrics

A lonely chill descends and caresses the autumn morning lightly The ground grows cold and damp and an aroma of change pervades the air The shroud of gloom extends to envelope the glow, once shone so brightly, In darkness breeds the self-aware A cleansing breath to wash all the pain from the throat of nostalgic yearning A cleansing breath to clear all the thoughts from the mind that dwells in vain A cleansing breath to dry all the tears from the face of the young still learning And let renewal come again All daylight concealed In blackness revealed Clear as the stars When the moon?s right With eyes left behind Depart from the blind Peer through the scars At long lost subtleties, forgotten virtues, distant and wonderous failings, hallowed these treasures buried, for me.
