Sit Silent - Sailing Stones

Oh, racing years

How did you bring me here?

Don’t recognise this place

Don’t even know my own face

What if it’s meaningless?

With no God to bless this mess

Where silence rests

I sit silent there

And what feels true

Is the moment as it grips you

It could drown you in the dark blue

Illuminate as it passes through

Or love that you never knew

With you when it’s not with you

In your mind a flower bloomed

Fires, wires

Oh how they consume

I wish I were a child

When I saw black and white

Now I see shades of grey

I chase the rainbows away

I hear a storm out there

Too cold to go anywhere

Where silence rests

I sit silent there

What feels true

Is the moment as it grips you

It could drown you in the dark blue

Illuminate as it passes through

Or love that you never knew

With you when it’s not with you

In your mind a flower bloomed

Fires, wires

Was it true?

Or a light I bestowed on you?

Projections in a dark room

Have I lost faith in my belief in you?

All that I thought I knew

The dreams I was clinging too

The little weights that drag you

You can’t let go

So keep them with you

Racing years

How did you bring me here?

Don’t recognise this place

Don’t even know my own face

If you see no way back

From the tapered track

Where silence rests

Sit silent there
