A Quiet Darkness

Well Heaven rode my back

And the angels dragged my throne

Only yesterday

Only yesterday

I carved out your name

Only yesterday

I built you a shrine

On the side of the road

And I shut my eyes

And laid my hands to rest

In dreams

There's a way

To die

Well I towed you from the wreck

Of dimming shadows in my head

Only yesterday

Only yesterday

I laid you to rest

Only yesterday

I wept for your shape

In it's endless decay

And I raised your voice from a stone

With the song of the dead

In dreams

There's a way

To die
