In the Evermore

Blessed be
Those that dance at the funeral
Kissing their sorrows to the yesterday

Mournful be the serenading harlequin
Slipping on
Masks of forgotten memories

Tasting the tranquil souls
Restful on the summer breeze
Finding a place in an open heart

Thinking why
Heaven doesn't live forever
As each tear dies on the vine

Broken promises
Of a broken man
Left in pieces on an open page

Come and sleep
Be it in the longest night
Close those open eyes now

Restful
Peaceful
For the evermore
