Time takes the shine, Withers all with its sandpaper fingers. Grey shades stain The running tapes of my memories Time, take my life, Scatter me across the night As you did with my dreams.
I wait for the light to fade, For my sores to grow damp. Look into the dark and you won't see me. Shards of past form a vision, It's where I rehabilitate.
Hold the time, hold it all. Blind, yet warm, Come out to play again.
Time takes the pain, Although scars remain Of stabwounds twisted By forgiven blades.
