UNDER THE MOON
The sky clears, and upon the rain-soaked asphalt,
a long shadow is cast afloat.
Suddenly, they burst forth, overflowing,
tears that sparkle as the stars do.
Down the path of thorns you've led me on,
my blood flows, and turns to rust.
It hurts, down, down in the depths of my heart,
Ah, but for my body, wracked with pain, to be lost into the sea.
Beyond, beyond the darkness that was not of my choosing,
the moon laughs at my shivering self.
I set out for creation, yes, but I soon tired
Without a reason, no, all I made I sent to destruction.
That's all it'll remain as, something shapeless and formless.
Something I'll only begin to notice was there after it's gone.
If these arms I'm holding you with are a bother,
all you have to do trample down upon them,
and that'll be fine.
Caught up in the threads of destiny,
I'm paralyzed, unable to move,
and I fall, I fall.
A world devoid of sound,
even you, I think, could find little meaning,
in life in a world like that.
Your hand, pushing me forth on my back
Don't ever stop, please.
Until the end comes for me...
Caught up in the threads of destiny,
I'm paralyzed, unable to move,
and I fall, I fall.
A world devoid of sound,
even you, I think, could find little meaning,
in life in a world like that.
In my selfishness, I've gone and passed through
numerous patches of endless darkness
Singing to a sky I know my song will never reach,
the moon shines upon me like this.
Ahhh...Under the Moon...a brilliantly dark and moody piece from Do As Infinity...
