Movers of the Night

Movers of the night 
Spear me for my tears has 
Just arrived 
Cold winds of the night 
Take care of me 
And embrace my mind 
to refresh more

Hot waters, touch my skin 
In places no one knows 
Dark light, please light up the room
But don't shine so bright 
For my tears would be seen 

Spirits of the night 
Don't stare at me, I'm as terrified 
As you are but harmless 
As a single tear 
As much as you would love 
To live nothing can bring you 
Back 
Tell me what you want 
But kill what hates 

Silent floor, don't move 
Don't say a word, just keep calm 
The morning hour will soon be here 
Be as silent as the heart but cry
Like my tears 

Tress be still
Nothing can disturb your sleep now 
Try and find peace, nothing can 
Scare you in this horrific night 
Trees find refuge in the Lord 
And leave find refuge in the tree 
And I shall find refuge in these tears 

Words keep flowing, I am listening 
Tears keep falling, I can't help it 
Winds keep breezing, I am cold
Floor be still, I won't wait 
And heart be calm, I won't hurt you 
No more
