But only to wake to a world

A night stilled and scarred,
where shadows move close to stand with you
just at the edge of it all.

Silenced they wait just out of light,
where life survives, or the shadows are born.

I`ll fall again as gray colors the world,
and dream of that friend who sees and stands guard.

Until I rise to feel the breath of life,
or death once more.

A friend who sees the needful child in here,
starved and weak, blood on both hands.

A friend to guard, no questions, the
dream I have.

But only to wake to a world
destined to night.

A night stilled and scarred,
where shadows move close to stand with you
just at the edge of it all.

Silenced they wait just out of light,
where life survives, or the shadows are born.

I`ll fall again as gray colors the world,
and dream of that friend who sees and stands guard.

Until I rise to feel the breath of life,
or death once more.
