My first real attempt at a story type of song. Really different IMO.
Lyrics
He wore a robe so bright that daylight blinded his presence
Tension was high and he had strayed from his lessons
Progressing to the resting point the would claim his grave
Safe to say he was there to await the day……..exit
Defeated he had laid in his bed
Not a tomb but the place he would rest his grateful head
Pain had left and he realized that holy ground had been broken
The light at the end of the vent now glowing
Slowing his pace he decided it was time to die and let live
Thinking positive he kept hands over land and took three final breathes in
Out were the words you could still hear in his sorrow
I love you today. I’ll be gone tomorrow.
Remember the gasp as the wind passes through ears
He couldn’t hear a response so he was through here
Held the third weep in and wept to his death
Left in the rest he had ingested the breathe
Gone today loved tomorrow
I can still think of the weeping heard in his sorrow
I followed the leader and told this tale for too long
Time to grow my own wings and write new songs
I wore a robe so I bright I was dieing in presence
Your lessons had befriended me with sparkling presents
Peasants on streets danced circles of joy to say
We understand it and we love you today
I was branded and I had to stay away
Jaded from their ways I had to search for my grave
I found my resting place I my headstone would say
I love you today, I’ll be gone tomorrow
