Forgotten Fields

How do we cope? Unearthing what we've known They are breaking the silence Died for just believing You won't die again, the souls are rising A brazen triumph of faith How can I forget? What you are and did for me Look at my empty home Overgrown and cover'd in leaves A silken afterthought Dead, limp and lifeless A shadow buried deep How many of us exist Unified without air to breathe Why didn't you stay silent? Broken but alive How can I forget? No one is here No one ever talks back to them I cannot fathom So early you filled the hole Mine are in the ground But yours could be next The scoffer made somber And those who forget pay in eternity Oh, don't you turn away You must honor them It will all come back on you If you wait for me to break down and give my life away I'll dig you out on bended knee No one dreams in these forgotten fields Ideas are never undone
