Summer Dirge

Mayo Baluyut


Tired and restless
I find solace in your violent heart

I see the future fading
Everything that goes must fall apart

You and I will never realize the truth behind
Of not knowing what to do in anything

And in time I'll see you through behind
Those curtains where you hide (I will know you)

But don't you know that

You're the only reason why I sing and smile?
I wonder if you remind yourself of who am I
I wish there was a way for you to sing along

Read me through my songs

I need you

Days go by and I get tongue-tied to even try
I'm looking at the mirror and I'm getting old

And you're just there, existing
I wonder if you think of me right now?

And I will sing, anyway
Until you find yourself a reason to stay

You are the crying heart on my easy chair

And in the end

I wonder how you're doing now and where you are
I wish that there was something else for me to hide
But death is coming closer, and it's, slithering

Please, come home right now

And I'll sing with you
