Come Down Now . . .

Mood: happy; nostalgic; sad
Currently: remembering the simple times
Listening to: Such Great Heights --The Postal Service

Darkness lay all around
And I lay alone
Surrounded in a comforting world.

I watched your shadows pass by,
Walking to and fro,
They go.

Listen to my silent cry,
Hear my quiet voice
From beneath the breaking waves.
Listen to these silent words
Screaming frantically for you.

I watched your shadows pass by,
Walking to and fro,
They go.

Footsteps ceased,
Lights went off,
And silence screamed at me.

I used to watch your shadows pass by,
Walking to and fro,
They go.

I closed my eyes
And floated away
From that comforting world.
I went away,
On a trip,
And whispered "goodnight" to myself.
