Veil of death by KCH

Tick tock round the clock someone please make it stop

Dancing in and out of sleep,
stirring me from the deep
Heart pounding fast and slow,
hearing whispers from below

Begging for one more breath,
beneath this veil of sudden death.
Shut eye in my dreams,
am I sleeping through the screams

Tick tock round the clock someone please make it stop

Clawing through the murky web,
weaving through my aching head
Angels on the other side,
swimming through the tears I've cried

Falling in and out of view,
Someone who resembled you,
Evil dripping through your soul,
Creeping round the floor below

Tick tock round the clock someone please make it stop

Shudder when I hear the call,
Lurking down a darkened hall,
Clinging on to the light,
In my fortress from the night

Teasing me with peaceful sounds,
Chills grip me all around.
I see the darkness in your soul
beneath the veil I've come to know

Tick tock round the clock someone please make it stop

A soothing voice calls me out,
I search and struggle all about
Nothing there, I cannot see
did you really come for me

Dark, light, peace and pain
In and out, who will reign
Will I know the one who saves,
or will I meet you at the grave

Tick tock round the clock someone please make it stop

Dare We Must

Dare we breathe

the sweetest breath

or wear a grin

while facing death

Dare we ponder

love and hate

with whispers in

our ears of fate

Dare we ask

a dying man

to wiggle his toes

in the sand

Dare we gasp

when love takes hold

or swallow the joy

down into our soul

Dare we smile

upon our fears

or laugh a little

through our tears

Dare we love

and share to its depth

as we ponder

our last regret

Dare we express

our kinder words

lest we fear

they're never heard

Dare we sing

our song of praise

while treading through

our darkest days

Dare we bring forth

our heart and soul

upon our weary

and broken road

Dare we must

and dare we will

for love will sleep

until we feel.

Until we feel

and freely move

the passion within

will not be soothed
