The Gracious Few
"Tredecim"

I am the harvest moon
My autumn spry
As summers rapture comes to close,
Aglow of orange at night

These leaves they lay upon me still
A seasons resting place
Careless and free, I am the winter's stay

For days upon days I've sailed for your shores
These waters between us all crashing and cold
I said I could change for your season I would
I said I would change

I have grown older will, by another name
My days have grown shorter filled,
A bit more life upon my plate
I cannot return to days of yore,
I commit to time, speed forth
Relentless and rife, splendor, encore

For days upon days I've sailed for your shores
These waters between us all crashing and cold
I said I could change for your season I would
I said I would change
No house for my rage insecure & diseased
Your beaches all littered with death and debris
I said I could for your season I've changed

I awake and I am dazed
I return a gilded man
My life has made me calendar
My life is flatland

For days upon days I've sailed for your shores
These waters between us all crashing and cold
I said I could change for your season I would
I said I would change
No house for my rage insecure & diseased
Your beaches all littered with death and debris
I said I could for your season I would
I said I could change
