A future was lost yesterday Easily, irretrievably Amidst grass at your feet Tragedies run away from me As slime of all my yesterdays Slime of all my yesterdays Dreams and thoughts In a hollow skull rots No one hears screaming Echoing behind Hollow eyes watering At dreams that unwind So the void calls me Hold fast to nothing Nothing lasts, it goes too fast Nothing can be dear The past always seems overcast By the shadow of the axe When you relax, it slips past And digs and tiny grave Where our future lays Slime of all my yesterdays Dreams and thoughts In a hollow skull rots No one hears screaming Echoing behind Hinting eyes watering At dreams that unwind So the void calls me Hold fast to nothing Nothing lasts, it goes too fast Nothing can be No one hears screaming Echoing behind Hollow eyes watering At dreams that unwind So the void calls me Hold fast to nothing Nothing lasts, it goes too fast Nothing can be free
