The Wretched Tide

We’re leaving today
After dust-ridden shutters close
And heartbeats they rush
Then to cease in your embrace
These scars though-out the night
Left no more fighting in us
No tears to fill the void
In a place even devils fled
The wretched tongues
Wording their pain on to me
Until even tide enters
There’s no place out of here
For grace to life me up every molecule
whispered to make peace with the unreality
I felt I was slipping downwards
into darkness
…and in darkness I stayed
until sadness closed its eyes
Ships passing in the silvery night
Carrying this vicious, benevolent heart
And in sadness we part
In the dark of you, in the dark of me
Release these hearts from the turmoil
Tired and cold
A tale since eons of old
So elusive this intemperance of escape
So much has fallen and is falling still
Into the hands of the ever madding crowd
So we’re leaving today
As dust-ridden shutters close
To site that glimmer of hope
And breathe, if only for a while
These stars that turned the tide
Left no more fighting in use
No hope to find the dawn
In a place even specters dwell
Ships passing in the silvery night
Carrying this vicious, benevolent heart
And in sadness we part
In the dark of you, in the dark of me
Release these hearts from the turmoil
Only Love before they drown
Tired and cold
A tale since eons of old
So elusive this intemperance of escape
So much has fallen and is falling still
Into the hands of the ever madding crowd
