Opaline

See my scars They come from the other half The drowning god My words are bouncing off the ground I see them all around But your back was turned My heart had to learn These years What a theft? Forty-six now How many left? Recall the red sun burning Over the avenues, and into our view Radiance that signified Magnified Divergent hue I see the last day turning Straight into emptiness How did it get so late? Your little voice in shadow now Sowing seeds to segregate Opaline Saw the trail of the fleeting twin Through last year's grass With the curtain closing in a bit I will go where I see fit Love me not For I was never one to pass the test, no All for the best You're heading east If you go now I go west I see the last day turning Straight into emptiness How did it get so late? Your little voice in shadow now Sowing seeds to segregate Gliding Weightless Through the vapour Off the map and into loss No more wisdom here to gather No more boundaries to cross I see the last day turning Straight into emptiness How did it get so late? Your little voice in shadow now Sowing seeds to segregate I had a futile dream It rose from loving you But the debt has broken my back There's no need to retaliate As your train has left our track
