Scenery
January 1, 1990
The flowers sway – a teardrop falls
And quiet echoes never scream
I reach for you I search for you
For only you can pull me through this darkness
An iron gate slams behind me Scarlet clouds stand above me A thirst for what I never tasted A chance to breathe a chance I wasted
Climb with me soar with me Hold me till I beg for mercy Dream for me live for me Smother me with your possession
The fog lifts the curtain closes Snakes writhe in fields of clover We both realize it’s never over It’s just a change of scenery
An iron gate slams behind me Scarlet clouds stand above me A thirst for what I never tasted A chance to breathe a chance I wasted
Climb with me soar with me Hold me till I beg for mercy Dream for me live for me Smother me with your possession
The fog lifts the curtain closes Snakes writhe in fields of clover We both realize it’s never over It’s just a change of scenery
J Wilford 1990
