Seasons never stay green
The rain always comes
And washed the color away

The green flows into the river
Where we used to spend sun filled days
Leaving loving memory in the mud

A new season starts
Brown and grey stains all optimism
As we fantasize about drowning

Black midnight skies bring out shadows
So we have silent company
A new face to dance into the regretted dawn

We walk to the gallows
To remember all that have moved on
Tears are useless they didn't mean to leave us here

Clover covers where muddy feet tread
A green carpet for our friends last bed
Their sweet smell carries us to the river side

Transparent color flows to fast to grasp
Memories drift back
As the sin sinks and reality fades

We fall into our river
Forever floating in color out of reach
The gallows will never have us, our souls we keep

Grey and hard like rocks weigh us down
Eyes never have color to see
My shadow and I will not rest in clovers
Eyes never have color to see
