The night catches up with me There are those silences Long and dark I wait for daylight to stay a bit longer And let out a squeal of pain As light goes out of my brittle bones There is no hope in my world There is no need for a helping hand My cries shall not be heard from this dungeon And finally those silences Will be crowned king of my land I have no reason to wait The sun has set There is no moon The clouds wary of every passing bat There is no inclination left The soul sold needs no salvation There is nowhere to escape I wrap those silences around me like a shawl Holding them close When sun shines again I forget to notice How can I think of anything else Draped in those silences.
