Abeyance Lyrics
As the candles yawned,
My world grew darker
'Til barely a detail remainedParchment and smoke
Through distant chimes
Moths carried by the breezeHer finger to my lips,
I am stilled in an instant -
I sip, and am numbed
From here the path winds backwardsAt first I see my entering
And then steps in reverse
Descent where I had fallen
Familiar, all is skewed
And yet I cannot reflect
Beyond my eyelids, I have died
Yet I collapse into youthFamiliar, all is frayed
And yet I cannot abide
Beyond my eyelids, I have diedDays are merging quickly now,
Into years that spiral from my chest
They pass but leave no markI swallow forgotten words
To gain what was lost
And lost what was gained
Until neither is real
Behind my head, her hands hold no weight
I have reached a beginning,
But somehow I do not stop
I fall through the first moment
To find that there is moreAs light cascades
Through the hole my body has torn
Already, it is closing
End
