woods of ypres – intro: the shams of optimism lyrics
an hour away from home,
the lights come on.
standing at the side of the road,
i am in awe.
amongst the snow and trees,
the freezing cold,
i thrive on each sorrowful note.
for the moment, all is still,
a tranquil pace.
the ease of being stranded,
in this comp-ssionate place
amongst the snow and trees,
the air is cold and clean,
and for the moment, i am at peace.
being able to enjoy a disaster
is a sham of being so optimistic.
now that the thrill has worn off,
and the adventure has lost it’s charm,
i just want to go home.
still waiting at the side of the road,
the hours have p-ssed, since i last moved.
head down, eyes closed,
into a suspended sleep i fall.
then in sequence, from far to near,
light reflects off of objects before…
a sun, of the darkest blues,
rises from the hills behind…
