Silhouette - Fellowship

I’m a silhouette of who I was\nAcross from flames that spark the doubts and hopes and echoes of\nA silhouette that looks like me\nBurning hope to keep us tangible 'til dawn\nTwilight sits beside me\nWhere company should be\nLet the stars put out my hope\nAnd in their place, light me\nSilhouette, become my statuette\nReplace this chest of mine\nTake stone for the ash inside\nSilhouette, live now at my behest\nThis burden consecrate\nA statue in my place\nIf I ever lack, then who will carry on?\nReturn to the eye, oh tear, foregone\nIf I’m an echo of those better things\nThen my sound is halfway drowned by silence answering\nAnd now figure in the bitter fray\nCome what may, war or rain, I’ll hear you echoing\nTwilight sits beside me\nWhere company should be\nLet the stars put out my hope\nAnd in their place, light me\nSilhouette, become my statuette\nReplace this chest of mine\nTake stone for the ash inside\nSilhouette, live now at my behest\nThis burden consecrate\nA statue in my place\nTo fade or fight through\nThe final throes of my due\nIf I’m alive, then life I can’t refuse\nSilhouette, become my statuette\nReplace this chest of mine\nTake stone for the ash inside\nSilhouette, live now at my behest\nThis burden consecrate\nA statue in my-\nSilhouette, become my statuette\nReplace this chest of mine\nTake stone for the ash inside\nSilhouette, live now at my behest\nThis burden consecrate\nA statue in my place
