The days rage like the tearing claws
Of the beast of prey
But in gnawing nights searching for peace
The sufferer’s stolen soul fails inside
The beast’s hurtful paunch
And it's acid laughter
Far from here within the storm’s raging
The fleeting years swirl like leaves
In those ruins of a human soul
But reaching for those years
The seeker drowns in
A surging ocean of
Fading memories
The weak senses change illusions
Into glimmers of hope
A suspected deeper truth
The observer cannot realize
For he plunges into passion and faith
As a way of passing the time
The exhausted death itself miserably fails
Giving no certainty of
Mercy and deliverance
And behind an intangible horizon
The swaying comedian squeals
And laughs scornfully
Within those realms of community The days rage like the tearing claws Of the beast of prey But in gnawing nights searching for peace The sufferer’s stolen soul fails inside The beast’s hurtful paunch And it's acid laughter Far from here within the storm’s raging The fleeting years swirl like leaves In those ruins of a human soul But reaching for those years The seeker drowns in A surging ocean of Fading memories The weak senses change illusions Into glimmers of hope A suspected deeper truth The observer cannot realize For he plunges into passion and faith As a way of passing the time The exhausted death itself miserably fails Giving no certainty of Mercy and deliverance And behind an intangible horizon The swaying comedian squeals And laughs scornfully Explain Request ×
