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
