Dark Days

Caroline, Now my faith is stone blind, There's not a sign, In this hollow world of mine But you're so refined I don't blame you for leaving me behind Your French books, Your pale privileged looks That schoolgirl stare All the judgment you impair We're called upon each day by a sun We never doubt that it will come We basked upon it's burning rays Now I've never seen such dark days I've got my quips But you're just prayers upon my lips That you won't return With the ashes of others burned To prove you were right, That "lust is brave but loves a fight" We're called upon each day by a sun We never doubt if it will come We basked upon its burning rays Now I've never seen such dark days Should I relent? Is it love that we invent? So we always look back, On this weathered well worn track We're called upon each day by a sun We never doubt if it will come We basked upon it's burning rays Now I've never seen such dark days Such Dark Days
