Solemn afternoons,
Where the west sun bathes
In bluish-yellow sea
Smoke whistles in the air
Where birds tiptoe
In electrical cords
And leaves, sway

Slowly, lights are dimmed
A balance between day and night
Where moist bodies lay
'Til everything dances in harmony

I miss days like this
Where my mind wanders
More than my body

And summer
Afternoons in awry
My feeble heart aches
In lonesome sights
I get to grieve myself

My heaven and hell
Are all gone
As my angels are silenced
And my devils sleep

It passes like a dream
A harrowing nightmare
Where corpses stay

And after all the noise,
I'll stay put
And grasp my hands
As I pray,

Everything will be okay.
