lyrics

My fingers plucked all the wrong strings,
I said all the wrong things,
Like “Why do you crave flesh?” (Oh, dear God!)
With a tear stinging her eye,
With a not-too-majestic sigh,
She asked “Why do you care?”

I thought “Oh, look what you’ve done!”
“You broke the only heart I love!”
“Then stuttered to stitch up the wounds.”
But she sighed and turned away,
Placed dark clouds upon my day,
I wept saying “If death comes now, it won’t be too soon!”

Silence rang out at that Dark Shed

As the songs bid their close,
End lines of lovely prose,
It bled the ink and perished in the snow.
My shoulders sigh,
My dry eyes then cried.
Merciless and black, that Dark Shed, that Dark Shed.
