The Elegy of the Fading Sun

From ‘That Which Binds Us’

Far away, a life is fading

As their love gives out.

Teardrops fall and they float through the sunlight.

Dying, they dry on the floor.

Drying, they’ll die evermore…

Do ‘we’ die or are we dreaming

When we say goodbye?

Soon, we will blur, only echoes in darkness.

Falling, we fade from the mind.

Fading, we’ll fall intertwined…

Does the fire that fuels the daylight

Far behind your eyes

Dim, so that light may be borne by another?

Setting, to burn, ne’er to raise.

Burning, to set us ablaze…

Far away, a life has faded

As their love gave out.

Teardrops fall and they float through the sunlight.

Dying, they dry on the floor.

Drying, they’ll die nevermore…
