State Laughter

Living in my memory

Faint footsteps call it seems

Where the shadows wait

And the red tears seep

From the holes in the wall

Our distant youth

Like flowers bloom

State laughter

For all of you

But, the petals fall

The petals fall

Though now the storm has passed

I lie beneath this cold gray earth

And my screams are silent

Only silent

Take it away

Living in my memory

Faint footsteps call, it seems

Where the shadows wait

And the red tears seep

From the holes in the wall

Those footsteps I do hear

And in anguish wait

For release a hand to take

From this cold gray earth

Take it away
