A Line On a Dark Day

Moments away, return to this place
Where they all lay down together
For their memory lasts forever
Through the fields where all is lost
In a bid to cut the cost

A line on a dark day
Blue sky is underway
Unwelcoming silence
A line on a dark day

Thoughts of dismay
Too much now to take
And the honour lingers on
But it won’t take back the wrong
And the emptiness they share
To the love for those who care

A line on a dark day
Blue sky is underway
Unwelcoming silence
A line on a dark day

And a million tears are shed
But it won’t bring back the dead
Hold a picture or a frame
Rewind and share the blame
But it’s all too hard to move
For their love can never prove
Light a candle amongst friends
Or alone it never ends

A line on a dark day
Blue sky is underway
Unwelcoming silence
A line on a dark day
