From the Album Wallpaper Sky
I wrote this tune as an acoustic, rainy day number. It was meant to be somber and dreary. Sombrance plays this song live now, but it’s a much more lively version. –rick
Words by and music by Mester
When yesterday’s are all you have
Tomorrow never comes
Gaze upon your blackened skies
And fear the chosen ones
They brought you this life eternal
Brought you to this pain
The agony of forgotten skies
And languid dreams of shame
Listen to the elegy
The sound of dying, sound of cold
Blessed be philosophy
Her stories ever told
Doomed to life’s entrapment
Shunned by all awake
And sieze the day too tightly
For all that is at stake
Burn the mark into your skin
Feel the rage of life
Sent abroad with open arms
To you my lovely wife
