Bird of Prey
How long has it been?
A lifetime along an aching artery
On this path lined by trouble
Yet paved with such gracious intent
A hunter's moon
The dulling stillness
All is the same
As on the night it came
It made its way above the leaden clouds
From cover to cover
A somber bird of prey
For a while it waited
Yet grew impatient
On the night it came
A faceless bird of prey
What little was left
It tore and took away
A hunter's moon
The numbing silence
A cold white light
Its blinding candor
All is the same
As when that somber bird of prey
Took my everything away
A lifetime along an aching artery
On this path lined by trouble
Yet paved with such gracious intent
A hunter's moon
The dulling stillness
All is the same
As on the night it came
It made its way above the leaden clouds
From cover to cover
A somber bird of prey
For a while it waited
Yet grew impatient
On the night it came
A faceless bird of prey
What little was left
It tore and took away
A hunter's moon
The numbing silence
A cold white light
Its blinding candor
All is the same
As when that somber bird of prey
Took my everything away
