Rains Will Come / A Shroud in the Forest
Cold rain. We linger between ice and sun. Still relishing the old pain. We finger wounds that we should shun. Dreary thoughts still rattling around my brain. Make me wish that all this pain would drain down the river to the sea. Breathe in. Say the name that all the demons fear. Finger cord and do it all again. Pray in hell and hope that Heaven hears. Breathe out. Punctured heart is emptied of its hate. Fragile hope grows where before was doubt. Fall holy tears and mercy it is not too late.

V1 Out the door, passed the prying eyes Under cover of darkness Zeks in pairs, still and silent, pass Luminous night hearkens Chorus: There’s a shroud in the forest There’s a fire in their eyes Solovkií lies frozen But their spirits cannot die V2 First three knocks, then two more quick Entrance in to Paradise Kiss the shroud so tenderly With their lips and their eyes
