The Meadow

On the forest floor they lay on their hands Cold as the air around them Boundless surroundings cover the land Take up all their value Hard to say it wasn't so Couldn't it let them go Bound by a faceless lie Crime to hold thoughts of old Tethered by a past once told Release what once was my own Captive, entranced Coax me to the light I see it, in your gaze For all we want is sight Guide our weary eyes through the harsh elements To safer weather Stumbled the blind faith all but bent Emerge and come together Hard to say it wasn't so Couldn't it let them go Bound by a faceless lie Crime to hold thoughts of old Tethered by a past once told Release what once was my own Captive, entranced Coax me to the light I see it, in your gaze For all we want is life Is life
