The Silent Life

Rivers of Nihil

6

The sun leaves on its own

A simple passage of the days that I have wasted

I feel summer slipping throughThese aging fingers

Compelled to walk upon the same path that I have tread so long

Still nothing changes

A simple passage to a place that I have come to know

I still remember

A better time

When the thoughts that we had connected

Between our open eyes we say goodbye

To a life that′s been mostly silent, erroneously lead

Strive to complete myself

It seems my work is never truly done

I see your face, barely through the haze

You see a life, erroneously lead

There's hope in younger days

There′s warmth within the past that's so familiar

I forget just why I came here

I hope that you remember home

All this time I've wasted

In my self-righteous anger

Oh the years I′ve lost

To this profound indifference

I find my direction

A solemn duty owned

Mine, it is mine alone

To watch this world expire

Like machines, we embrace

Cold limbs connect

A silent, errored life

Slipping into oblivion

Lead astray

Through endless days

Silent now

The words so loud

My mind is drifting out

Between perception of a dream and what is real

Now all I have is lost with you

I hope that you remember

A better time when the lights were all so candescent

That reached me from the sky

We say goodbye, to a life within dead horizons

Erroneously lead

Strive to escape myself

It seems my work is never truly done

I see your shape, falter in the wake

Of a life erroneously lead
