Greet The Dawn (For F​.​)

from The Storm Bells Chime (2016) by SOL

/

lyrics

My german shepherd and I
stood in the courtyard
and saw the sky tumbling down
towards us
engulfing my childhood
in a strange loss of time and sense
And her calm eyes told me
not to care anymore
And somewhere in the distance
the roosters greet the dawn

But the fields are barren
The forest is dead
The lake is drained
The stars are gone
The sky is empty
The sky is empty
The sky is empty
The sky is empty

Still I hear the sound of thunder
Pearls raining on silk
Beneath the clouds I waited
in the winter of 1985
A ghost, a thief and a mule
A shadow of all the things I’d never be
And my mother carried me in her arms
far into the warmth of solitude
Where cartoon satans laugh at the light
with great sarcasm
and 30 years of distrust
for the modern individual

There are flies in my house
and they are eating my shadow
And am I to die daily
must it be without her?
And her calm eyes told me
Not to care anymore
