lyrics
The eyes can no longer be believed. Everything blurs into shadow. There is no form. When the wind is dark, all that was is swept away.
The turning of time grows stronger. All that I cling to turns to sand and slips through my fingers.
Yesterday and tomorrow never touch. Night must come. All that is will collapse into dust.
The trees no longer move.
To fight the darkness is cowardice. To surrender to it takes the greater courage.
