Lazy River

Like a thorough bread horse arching its neck in dying light Letting its mane grow long and flow into the night Time is still but deep and runs its current through my heart The lazy river flows to oceans in the dark Through my window blinds the sunlight seems to slowly fall As my candle burns I see my shadow dancing on the wall Though I know not where to go I’ll follow so close behind Give it one more try as I weave myself into another life In a thronging cavalry, filled with passion and forget Writing twisted dreams held firm until the end Unsurpassed in beauty she holy Helen came and went Only thoughts of loveless passion did she spend Now I go with her and sacrifice my only child In perverted paraphrase I worship shadows in the night Though I know not where to go I’ll follow so close behind Walk into the light as I weave myself into another life
