Lament

As I stood in the shade there beside him And as eyes turned to a paler shade of crimson As I felt cold blood waves running down my spine Then I knew he wouldn't return Maybe I should have known (better) Some things we just have to bear I thought I could, still can't I saw it all coming down That's what life's all about Experience the unknown Now I know I'd rather not (Sometimes) fear is our only foe As I stood in the shade there beside them And as eyes turned to a brighter shade of blue again With a glimpse of an eye he did understand Then he knew I wouldn't return That's what life's all about Experience the unknown Now I know I'd rather not (Sometimes) fear is our only foe Maybe I should have known (better) Some things we just have to stand I thought I could still can't I saw them both die in vain --- Lament - Midnattsol
