What is familiar to us we hold most dear The dying warmth in the fireplace that was our love Oh how quickly we forget to add the kindling To soon does the light fade on either side of your nose Still you look into the night, searching For that which you know, but have never had You grasp for life with your barren hands Yet it slips through your fingers as if it was made of water For the flow of life is fickle and who can know it's course Silent and serpentine these dreams pass Through my sheets and on into the night What poor unfortunate sinner do they seek next I am all I have ever said, and I do not speak well of the dead Your words are knives pulled from a mouth of swords Your eyes are fire pulled from hells firy columns Still you light my way, I am a fool to follow But this is familiar, to my old soul She who has scorned you, still calls your name Never should she have even know it, but fools live and die You must not answer, still you do, but fools live and die For you long for what is familiar to you She will follow, with the lust of her hands To seek us in a place that no man knows For where can that be, is it the garden From whence God cast his children Is it the sky, where Orion was scythed by his children Or still yet the dessert where no water is found Still now I see it, yet I do not know For is it where none can ever go Is is your heart , within your self You live there, and die there, and can never get out For you know this place, but do not even know yourself
