The Mind of the FaustAnother night, an ivory towerThe Mind of the Faust
A silent storm within stained glass windows
Ancient bookcases of pure mahogany
History and struggles of man within
Dripping ink on crinkled pages
Mechanisms working in time to internal rhythms
Twiddling fingers idly, mulling over mosaic letterings
Pondering with ‘brows furrowing
Worrying over tables of time,
Philosophy, medicinal wines
Cryptic words and obscure signs,
Delving deep into the shadows of the human mind
Conscious probing for knowledge

Before the sun sets upon my time, and ushers in a new begIs there more to life?

Watch sweet dew drops ever falling Yet one can not feel that underneath There is more than nature calling

Bad OmenVerse 1: Walking under ladders, Looking at another Broken mirror that you’ve set for me. Cautious cracks so faded Black cats so jaded, Dreaded I met you on a Friday 13thBad Omen
Bridge: There’s nothing that oft’ compels you, You just say what’s in your heart But your hateful words drifts us apart
Chorus: Have I ever felt so broken, Felt so shaken, Felt so taken? Or is it just me?
Do I feel that cold dark shadow? Have I ever felt so hollow? Is it omens to be?
Verse 2: Trouble seem to follow Pick me u

Seeing is believing...
And I don't see you.
Parting is such sweet sorrow...
