[ Featuring the Piano ]
My expectations murmured
They hummed a quiet song
Pondering sin and murder
Not knowing right from wrong
The icy steps I took
Went long and beyond my hope
For love and peace
Into the field I wandered
Into the golden light
A clearing past the forest
Of wintery delight
My shoes are getting worn
But my destination is close
But far, for me
I could not see the signal, I could not wait for long
The wind cut through my jacket, the holes whistled a song
I deserved naught but what the frigid abyss had planned for me
I knew my friends would arrive shortly
Spring reared its ugly head
And iridescence grew
The light of greenish colors
Project in every hue
Of someone's heroism
Still cluttering the path
To fall, not all
The corpse was cast asunder
The bones, they withered, gone
The hare leapt past the eyeball
The maggots carried on
The journey met its match
And God carried on his plans
But not for me
I could not see the signal, I could not wait for long
The wind cut through my jacket, the holes whistled a song
I deserved naught but what the frigid abyss had planned for me
I knew my friends would arrive shortly
The blessings given were spent poorly
