I’ve been lost in time,
These last few months,
With clocks that won’t tock –
And days that won’t stop.
And I was happy.
Or maybe a little too comfortable.
It’s all the same,
Because the sun won’t always shine,
And you can’t stop the rain.
But time will always find you,
And I’m here now.
So where are you?
Are you hiding too?
Running from the monotonous chime –
The one that dictates your waking,
And your slumber.
Your not so silent slumber.
Trapped within the walls of time.
Is this living,
Or is this death?
It doesn’t matter,
The trees will still grow –
Either way.
And I’m here now.
I wear bells now –
To throw that monotonous chime –
Out of time.
So where are you?
Do you wear bells too?
I don’t weep,
No I don’t cry,
Because tears don’t harmonize,
With the monotonous chime.

Stop! Fair maiden, excuse my haste --
but today the Heavens weep.
Off of your feet will you allow me to sweep,
and adore you in all your grace?
Your eyes they sparkle upon your face,
a gaze to make my heart leap.
The most pure of flowers may never creep --
close to the beauty you encase.
Stay with me a little while,
until those tears do dry.
Close your eyes, I'll sing a lullaby ,
until the east see's moonshine.
Bid the day farewell -- dream -- release a smile,
we will meet again, next Winter time.
