Song of the Dead Prt 1

The unknown is the untold, forbidden but not forgotten secrets of the heart like songs of the dead….. Dear soul of mine where off have you gone Left I, a bag bones, buried deep in this earth This body needs your company I miss the sound of your breath As you made my heart beat But I fell for defeat like many Am now i sing this song of the dead Dear soul of mine, where off have you gone, Have they accepted you in the havens? Have they opened the doors for a wretch like you? Is it a better place for all after all? Indeed you use to tell me the truth I guess these bones of mine took a wrong turn Am In a dark place buried within the dust The walls here are so dark, I can’t open my eye enough to see light This must be hell where I fell, Dear soul of mine where off have you gone Left I, a bag bones, buried deep on this earth As dust fell to dust I was buried and became the past For love or lust Come hold me again and let me fly again Until the end of time
