Wait by the river

Something has changed
Something is different, I know
I know
Where have you gone?
It's getting dark
Was I left behind?
You're far away
Where have you gone?

Fear
Child hardened by snow
Given up to the cold

Where have you gone?
It's getting dark

Follow along the riverbed
You’ll find her waiting there
Breathe into your hands

She yields to the ground
White breath above
A quickly waking ghost
She knows
This is the last Moon
This is the last time she’ll lie awake
Screaming out
Asking forgiveness
Mother
Please come back

Its her fault
She did this to herself
