you've got a story to tell

and a place to come home to

yet, you choose to hide

do you feel safer out here

where no one will be watching

or do you fear the light

i am calling you

i am watching you

i walk with you

i play like you

unafraid and blue

i hear them whipping the mule

as they follow the coffin

destined for the field

the mourners behind

i see you're walking amongst them

i know you need my voice

all these familiar faces

all gathered around the open mouth

i see your shadow down there

- but then it's gone
