Mercury

The dull light lingers

The candle flickers

Beside you in the red

The beat of nameless songs

The pulsing flame goes on

I try to hear

But I am not there



I saw you for the first time today

With nothing left in the way

I've never felt this way before

And I fear I'll never feel it again

What do you need to feel from you need

Take what you want

What do you see



On the ocean and beyond

Amidst the others



I'm waiting impatient

An echoed existance

I'm waiting impatient

An echoed existance

I'm waiting impatient

An echoed existance

I'm waiting impatient

An echoed existance



The dull light lingers

The candle flickers

Beside you in the red

The beat of nameless songs

The pulsing flame goes on

I try to hear

But I am not there



The faces unfamiliar

I've never felt so close

A flickered little moment that goes on

That leaves me so sore
