I am the night that robs you of light |
|
The night wind that chills to the bone |
|
I am the cold stillness, the stars and the harshness |
|
The darkness you wander alone |
|
I am the sun that parches the desert |
|
I am that desert where you meander forever |
|
I am the heat that scorches your feet |
|
As you collapse miles from the water |
|
I am the vulture that feeds and feasts |
|
On the flesh of your bloated cadaver |
|
I am the rain that subdues the heat |
|
Albeit for you I arrive somewhat late |
|
But in time to wash the dust from your bones |
|
And moisten the place you repose all alone |
|
I am the breeze that scatters the leaves |
|
The storm that turns towns upside down |
|
I am the wind, the rain and the thunder |
|
The furious torrent that rips all asunder |
|
And tears what is dead, and that which is living |
|
Without regard for what I'm taking or leaving |
