Not long now my last summer nears
These days of heated love and fear
Gone the days of my wonder years

A song has come and fed my ears
Warm my heart and wed my tears

Better to have loved than not at all
To whisper sweet things before I fall
To tell you my love before God calls

A song has come and fed my ears
Warm my heart and wed my tears

Sweet is the road that wins the race
To slumber some in Gods good grace
All I'd give again just to kiss your face

Vanity covers the road to redemption
Self-doubt is the admission I fear
When no other way seems as clear

The mind extends what the heart has bled
Upon the word the mighty pen has sped
From the womb to the tomb it is said

Doubts are the window I must choose
And my faith is one I must not refuse
Or it is more than life I will have to loose

On the water’s edge time slips away
My constant will I must learn to sway
God’s the same as he was yesterday

The witch in my heart casts an evil spell
I bow to the graveling heat of her breath
She cries, beats she stomps and she stomps
And there is none to release me from her arms

The day will come…..boom, boom, boom…..

Like a rag doll I take the beating and roll away
When I awake I realize nothing has happened
Dreams, dreams of fear, of something coming
A solemn drum beat …banging in my mind

The day will come…..boom, boom, boom…..

Death moves my way like the tide at night
Ever near I feel the ebbing silence shearing
Another day another hour she takes away
Death is the breast which I suckle at night

The day will come…..boom, boom, …..

My heart is grown full of tears
My mind is drown in distress
My bones have become weary
And there are miles between us
My cries reach out to heaven
As darkness reaches into my soul
Upon this porch I am emptied
Like water I am poured out
The earth will soon take hold
I will as I was ever not before
Be vanquished and forgotten
