Silence In the Night

Listen Listen Listen Silence in the night Whose bitterness Encompasses the glory of the stars What do you search for What do you yearn for What need will feed your appetite Surely not here With a soul and his memories Waiting to join them again Surely not here In the hallways of happiness Ever so vast Surely not here On the golden sunset Of dreams yet to be Sitting there lonely In now empty room All that remains There is no reason to smile There is no hope for laughter And yet he does Maybe that is what you’re after Maybe this is what you seek Maybe never had to happen Emptiness forgotten Silence now is your form The answer to life without cause Emptiness forgotten Can’t you leave this one alone Whose life you never knew Emptiness forgotten Seeks too late a heart As the light goes out Listen Listen Listen
