And For The Briefest Of Moments

Rise my dear,
Watch this heavenly flame
Engulfed in dusk of our ways
A bleeding that cannot be stopped.

Suppressed, or so I thought...
I feel that time comes to a halt.

As within so without
Oh, this grave is not for you nor me
Shed the last the vestiges of humanity
For what we brought upon ourselves.

So wherever you may find yourself
I will wait by the rivers step
Sit idly by in the embrace of wet grass
I will wait by the rivers step.

And I may never know your face.

It stands ablaze yet still, despite not looking the part
It stands ablaze yet still, despite not looking the part
Years turns to hours, life turns to ash in the blink of an eye
And in this briefest of moments, will I ever see you again?

So wherever you may find yourself
I will wait by the rivers step
Sit idly by in the embrace of wet grass
I will wait by the rivers step.

I wait here, by the edge of the world
Rise... Rise! Rise, my dear!
Endless rain will keep me here
I will wait by the rivers step.

And I will never know your face.
