Across the midnight sky
A gentle soothing breezeThe wind lets out a settled sigh
The candles as they please
And all around the salty water
Foam crawling up the jagged cliff
Again, the whole world seemed to falter
Wondering why, or who or if
But yet the gleaming, sad misfortune
That overlapped the shining sea
And the sun setting, burning yellow
The silent sob echoed through the key
And rang around the world a warning cry
That left all ones to mourn
The soft currents turned to angry tides
And the lives were left forlorn
The breezes turned to strong winds
And every silence turned to sigh
Across the meadow full of sins
Was let loose and set to fly
So, to run across the battlefield
Stained and drowned in tears
And to sit, to cry and weep
A prayer loses fears
No screams were echoed later that time
Not on that dark and lonely night
All was well, and they saw light
Across the darkened midnight sky
