Merry & Bright by User 351767863 published on 2022-11-27T23:55:22Z We want to tell our story Merry and bright Shortest day the year almost night Letting off a little steam Play it how it lies Spin the sturdy strands of our disguise It’s the waiting It’s the waiting It’s the waiting She looked right into the camera Didn’t flinch, didn’t hide Staring though the lens into our eyes I’m over the moon done with the sky the only thing that holds me now is time It’s the waiting It’s the waiting It’s the waiting You’ve looked all your life for something watched it vanish out of sight. Seems almost like a game It isn’t right We gather up the children Making ready for the night Watching as the dark unfolds to light It’s the waiting It’s the waiting It’s the waiting He put his house in order sent his ashes to the sea Jetsam on the tides… Letting off a little steam Merry and bright It’s the waiting it’s the waiting it’s the waiting
