My Soul Lies

Eyes full of the darkness of night Skin shivers to the touch of nights’ A dark horse rises from demon spawn As I unsaddle my nightmares at dawn What I’ve seen remains beyond eyeshot Dark secrets…behind the mind shut I stand naked in the mirror Reflections of a fallen hero The world found me lost in its wake And now my heavy steps cause it to quake It’s a new day…only tonight stands in our sorrow Only light lies! Between eternity and all our tomorrows My soul lies! Hidden in my black suitcase A bridged contract with God in its place Down on my knees…I rise a new man My prayers null and void…Amen!
