Lapis Lazuli

Lapis Lazuli


We don't talk anymore
Don't see you out at the shows
Have you grown so sick at heart?
Standing ridged 'mongst waving rows
The winds they haven't changed you
So much as brought things to light
Still I don't know where to go from here
No one's leaving to say goodbye...
But I'll try...

We don't talk anymore
Was it something that I did?
I've been sifted down powder fine
Is that a stone stuck to your ribs?
The winds I feel they are carrying me
Like a dervish, round but not far
Another color trying to be the next lapis lazuli
I was a shadow between you and the wall...
Until you ceased to call...

We don't talk anymore
Maybe that is for the best
We don't talk anymore
Just let rest unsaid all the rest
The winds they haven't changed you
So much as brought things to light
Still I don't know where to go from here
No one's leaving to say goodbye...
But I'll try...
But I'll try...
