The Blue of the Sky Is An Ever Dream

If a wind of change
 were to stifle truth
and peel the eyes of the blind
If a grave was the
gate of immortal dawn
where the sad trees lean
 over flowers forlorn
For seven eternities
 I will wait for you
Until silent death
splits my heart in two
I will follow the dream
 of a never doom
To await your sun
 in a nether tomb
For forever means all
 in a grander scheme
and the blue of the sky
 is an ever dream
