Delerium
"A Poem For Byzantium"


Unbidden shadows of you formed yesterday.
I ran away to a room here on the bay.
Interrupted life again, another new beginning
Where the silence echoes "you're no longer with me."

Here and now, I feel that I'm embracing freedom
Even though I may be alone, but that's okay.

Through the darkness I would walk in the streets.
Confessions never seemed to provide me with a release.
Held me down and tried to cure me, tried to give me reason.Lyrics
But nothing could separate this burdened mind from me.

Here and now, I feel that I'm embracing freedom
Even though i may be alone, but that's okay,
And looking out to a different sky will disengage me.
Absence is never the answer, I know, but it serves as my shade.

I do not seek and do not intend to find
A calmer ocean or a sun that never will rise.
My world will never change and time will bring you to my thoughts, and
I'll move on and then forget you all over again.
Moving on, I can forgive you all over again.

Here and now, I feel that I'm embracing freedom
Even though i may be alone, but that's okay,
And looking out into a different sky, it seems so easy.
Absence is never the answer, I know, but it serves as my shade.
