Lyrics
I can sit here and watch
as it all folds away into Winter.
And pretend I'm surprised
by the darkling skies and the rain.
Or I can sit here and wait
for Death to come upon me like a Stranger.
I can sit here all night,
the fog rolling in getting thicker.
I can sit here and drowse
to the low, sad song of morning.
The pain of falling leaves,
the awkward reprieve of the day.
I can sit here and dream,
but I can't remember the singing.
I can sit here and dwell
alone and disappearing.
I can sit here and stare
as you shuffle the pieces once again.
And search for the words
that flutter like birds across your eyes.
I can sit in the dirt and try to unearth
the last of you buried there.
I can sit here and wait
I can sit here and wait
I can sit here and wait
