TILL NOTHING ELSE AWAITS

 

Like a fire in me, I want to see your face shine down on me;

I want to see the man that you can build me up to be.

 

Here, in this nothingness I will stand till nothing else awaits; I will wallow in the mire till gone I see are all the dates.  Till nothing else is left... till nothing else awaits.

 

Shine your light on me and bring me up from death;

for to you I look to live in perfect love and health. 

All gold and silver for you I will give – all my wealth. 

Amoung our enemies I will continue to move with faultless stealth.

 

Alone I sit in the dark; only the voices in the hall are heard.

Admit I will, from time to time my sight has been blurred.

Wine has made my words hard to understand... so slurred.

Yet, at the end – you always remain to me the final word.

 

For you to shine I’ll wait till nothing else awaits.

Sent to hell I’ll be if you don’t come while I wait.

 

The picture finally fades like the fire in me;

Structure crumbles... as I am not what I should be.

 

Come, come before I stand alone... waiting till nothing else awaits.
