Trains (Rose, Mary and Time) - (from SWEET WILLIAM EP)

In the shadows of a darkened room
The shadows gone despite the gloom
And the soul that cast it never made the grave
He tripped upon a tripping fence
The kind that time has cooked and bent
With symphonies of thoughts I jump and dance
And trains don't stop your soul, they break your heart

I'm dislocated and I'm full of fear
I've stopped the train when no one was near
The dreamt-est storm of children past me by
Singing songs of not a care, a-dancing in the open air
And gods lay in with the sunlight, you where with them
And I had not the smallest thing to give them

Must have forgotten how to play the game
Or dance with all the nearly lame
The Lord above, our ground below, ______(?)
For all the time you lived, you dreamt
And having always came, you went
I'm full of you although it falls apart
Trains don't stop your soul, they break your heart

Oh, my dearie meeted end
Has left me wanting more, my friend
And sovereign to the calendar
Time a-pace lost lavender,
Lost rosemary, left charcoal black,
Left death so white and paintings back
Of seasons end, brought spring again
And all before I leave, my friend
