Wouldn't Say - Emily Jean

Far beyond the shaking grey of the setting sun
And far beyond the aching fields where your rest was won
For your payment
For your soul
Ever changing
Let it go
Those empty eyes bring a shadow's shape
And your light is gone
Your mind betrayed you
A river runs red
You forgot my name
Then forgot what we had
We all go back in the ground
Damned for all of the living
Kicking free from an empty shell
Best that we are forgiving
Ever changing
Still the same
Topsail Road
Shakes today
All those moments lost in time
Like the driven rain
Your mind betrayed you
A river runs red
You forgot my name
Then forgot what we had
It's a criminal failure
A medical dread
Just an empty husk
In a hospital bed
Gone before you were dead
Robbed of happy and hoping
Staring off into space
We all knew where this was going
Into darkness
Waste away
Dimming light
Harder days
Short and shine as a lifelong creed
May it light your way
Your mind betrayed you
A river runs red
You forgot my name
Then forgot what we had
It's a criminal failure
A medical dread
Just an empty husk
In a hospital bed
