When the sun drops.

Darkness surrounds my world

But only at night

When the sun drops

Behind the skyline

A shadow of the past is left unfurled

When gleaming shores are fading from my sight

My bleeding heart stops,

Waiting for a sign

Shades of grey disturb my fleeting thoughts

Does something flitter through the unseen scene?

My bleeding heart

Stops waiting for a sign.

Untie life's tangled knots,

Fight the battle still unseen

I tear myself apart

My fragments sink into your fading moonshine

And darkness surrounds my world

As dreams fade out of sight

When the sun drops

Behind the skyline.
