Yearning ghosts in flight
And then it dawns on you
Out there in the night
Towards the room which is not lit

Decapitate sympathy
Cannot muster the outreach
Deny the helping hands
Wake of the awakened

Deny the helping hands
Wake of the awakened
Lifetime of thoughts
Build layers of walls around you

Lesser and lesser
In common with the humans
Rivers of life grind away
Furrows of numb regretfulness

Detachment rules supreme
Wallow in the sullen tears
Of denied closure

Decapitate sympathy
Cannot muster the outreach
Deny the helping hands
Wake of the awakened

Yearning ghosts in flight
And then it dawns on you
Out there in the night
Towards the room which is not lit

Decapitate sympathy
Cannot muster the outreach
Deny the helping hands
Wake of the awakened
