Quiescence
The Cranberry Merchants
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Her shadow wanes in time through parallels of light On her guard in her glorified camouflage Heady with the winds like a discipline She won’t mar landscapes that her will can draw (Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep If I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take) The silence breaks astray a devastating wave Beat my chest with fears that demand respect The sky goes by, air solidifies Heavy in my head as it fills my bed (Oh angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God’s love commits me here, Ever this day be at my side, to rule and guide… Amen) She sees to serenity, seizes my mortality Faces my eternity, calms the sea that lives in me She knows where my truth must lie, brings in earth and brings in tide Runs the secret through my veins, brings me to another day There in the dark, crossing the bridge with them They disregard, they have quiescence… Another liquid night eclipses from my eyes Back to clutch the things that I left untouched And she’ll justify life she modified Walls she left that watched me while I slept (My good angel, thou comest from heaven God has sent thee to take care of me, oh shelter me under thy wings) (Do not leave me, stay quite near me And defend me against the spirits of evil) She sees to serenity, seizes my mortality Faces my eternity, calms the sea that lives in me She knows where my truth must lie, brings in earth and brings in tide Runs the secret through my veins, brings me to another day There in the dark, down in the closet chasm Don’t be alarmed, it’s just Quiescence
