SO MANY MILES AWAY FROM HERE A CANAL LIES WAITING
IN THE SPARKLING WATERS, A REFLECTION OF A YOUNGER ME HOW I PROMISED THAT I WOULD RETURN
BUT I WILL NEVER LEARN
THAT PROMISES CANNOT MAKE THINGS HAPPEN
IN MY DREAMS NOW I SEE THOSE BLACK WATERS
Quietly STILL, RUNNING DEEP
A REFLECTION OF AGE, BRICK CHIMNEYS STANDING TALL THESE DARK FIGURES OF GHOSTS, ONCE SO POWERFUL
NOW LEFT BEHIND TO CRUMBLE FOR A JOYLESS END
BROKEN BY THE OCCASIONAL HEADLIGHTS
SHINING ON GRAFFITIED WALLS THAT REFLECT MY MIND SHINING EYES THAT HAVE SEEN SO MUCH AND HIDE SO MUCH IN A BLINK WILL BE SHUT FOREVER
ALL THOSE HOPES AND DREAMS AND BROKEN PROMISES
WILL NOT HAUNT ME ANYMORE
AND THE HOURS AND HOURS AND HOURS
OF ENDLESS LONELINESS
THE HOURS AND HOURS OF ENDLESS LONELINESS
