In The Box

When summers fade and grace is lost As darkness shrouds and faith is lost These bloodless doubts run through the veins And memories fall like autumn rain Look deep into my closing eyes And you'll see a shade in slow decline A pale arm furled round my shoulder Abstracting what once was aligned Can anyone see me? I'm like a ghost And what's all this for, really? I'm sunk like a stone And I fold The seeds are sown The bird has flown And darkness glitters gold Well I don't know how But I'm disavowed Don't put me in your box's murky shroud I'm just a fool boy And I thought I'd found The keys to break this cage In the endless sound So can you see me? I'm lost and lone And what's the point now really? I'm sunk like a stone So I fold The seeds are sown The bird has flown And darkness glitters gold And I fold The seeds are sown The bird has flown And darkness glitters gold
