Elegy Lyrics by Moulettes

Constellations

2014

Rosie in the light of dusk
\nAnd soaring freely around the rigging
\nFeels like something's on the cusp
\nSomething marvellous just beginning
\n
\nNow I'm stood upon the sodden soil
\nAnd I'm toiling over this hole I'm digging
\nShould I knock it down right dead
\nOr quietly bury it while it's still living?
\n
\nFractured and black my poor heart was struggling
\nWept all over it and rusted the casket shut
\nThen solemnly to the cemetery, to lay it underground
\nNo song, no psalm, no sermon, no sound
\n
\nAnd who is this who through his cowardness
\nHas sickened and withered it?
\nMy lover, brother, confidant and friend
\n
\nDon't hesitate, don't slacken pacе
\nAnd never look over your shouldеr
\nI will follow on as planned
\nAnd we will meet again before we're much older\n\n
