Vacant Stare Lyrics by Vertigo Steps

The Melancholy Hour

0

There was a quiet menace
Broody and uncanny
Shifting in phase
As the stranger walked in the village
Half-hidden shade, past ill conceived
Say, him’ not from round here
Say’ I know I’ve seen that face
Saw you there
Digging my hole
Your smile was wet
Your drug untold
Saw you there
Digging my hole
Your smile was wet
Your drug untold
Swirled through the township
Like a Jester in disguise
Him’eyes cast an awkward shadow
He surely can’t be right
Like a whistler and his gun
(word said) hе’d burst away the Sun
Cold hands, looking daggers his way
Did anyone carе to ask the hermit
Why he chose to cast away ?
His precious vacant stare…
The god they promised failed to show
Shadows cloaking now his soil
Casting away his vacant stare
Saw myself leaving
Escaping the hole
The smile ran dry
My wind unfold
Saw myself leaving
Escaping the hole
The smile ran dry
My wind unfold
