Step in the Sunlight

Step in the Sunlight

::::::::::::::

Long, long ago

My grandmother was

Turned crazy like the many after

So to bring the darkness in

Her love for a man

Who thought only of sin

Try as she would

Try as she might

It still brang the shadows into my sight

A stranger sight wouldn't have been

All four of the children

Locked and kept in

Voices to be silent

Kept strangers to light

Oh how we yearned for a face with our might

Grimace so frozen

Melted blue tears

Flowers are blowing

Faded grey through the years

Colour hope yellow

The sun we seldom see

Black is our being

But bring the faith back to me

So now I lose another I love

Sordid revenge

Blossomed in an attic high above

Decked out with diamonds

Dressed in gossamer threads

We escaped to the golden

Yet you still sleep soundly in that bed

So now I leap

I dance I fly

For one day revenge will be mine, all mine

One day of wonder on a cold winters night

Through the pain

Comes a desperate plight

A Nightmarish blaze

My try to dissolve the fight

You come back once more

Hate is renewed

And now you have harmed my children too

Once loved and once hated

Now I forgive you

But a nightmare comes back

Repetitive past

Yet I die happy

At last, at last
