I live in my red brick house on the sea Forgetting my days as days run past Forgetting the past like words on the wind Forever floating away on the tides of though My eyes have ceased seeing, my hands lack feeling Everything is monotone darkness, nothing but absence I grasp the sand blindly, crying out in frustration Is this how you saw yourself so long ago? Such ambitions you had, such dreams and aspirations Hold back the tears, hold back the bitter thoughts, Yesterday I could see, today my eyes betray me.
