Riddles Abound

Lyrics

The cautious surrender you feel when it rains The lightning recedes but the thunder remains The sky still remembers, it echoes in veins A whisper of water, a promise of chains

In all of my playing I can't find the key The notes on the score too fast to see The melody hides in the cracks of the floor A shadow of sound that asks me for more

The rain pounds, the sky cracks The time divides, no going back The ground shakes, the branch snaps The song collides, no fading track

A silent progression resolves to the one The ink is still wet but can't be undone The paper remembers the heat of the sun It captured the moment, though the moment has run

Relief fills the lantern Escape feeds the flame The flame bends the shadow The shadow speaks your name

If I could explain the noise in my head A lullaby laden with endless dread The frequency fractures, it splits at the seam Yet buried in dread is the spark of a dream

The rain pounds, the sky cracks The time divides, no going back The ground shakes, the branch snaps The song collides, no fading track

No answers profound Not this time around Just echoes that wander Just riddles abound Just echoes that wander Just riddles abound
