Latergate

All along, a vision of pale pink Had you spinning, your hands in the sink Words heard, gather round And listen for the sound of latergates Lights on and open for you to walk on through To live a life of truth with pain Not everyday, and not everything Is yours to lose, to slip away Undertow and evermore Of this, of never finding sleep Not again, not waves of pause Finding a gaze in a strangers eyes With blue and green, they look like mine A heavy conscious of things left outside With fear of losing track and fear of losing count Fear of losing time and only to be seen Is yours to lose, to slip away Undertow and evermore Of this, of never finding sleep Not again, not waves of pause A season of grief Where the lights go out and I can't see your face A grasping weakness, a break in the hold Brings forth a song that's heard and told
