Painted album cover for Ashes or Dust

Broken Dagger

Sun breaks
Like a ripple in the wave
Drowning shadows in a maze
Light fades
Bending in the haze
The wind is sending me away

Uneasy brook
Rumbling and stirring
Like the last hour leaving
A desperate storm
Winter on its way
The desperation in your face

I've been strung out
Like a broken dagger
Hiding out in the day
I've been waiting
Here for hours
For you to turn and look my way

Blood red sun
Lost in the night
Needing the heat of your light
A silent dawn
Came without warning
Hanging in a foggy morning

I've been strung out
Like a broken dagger
Hiding out in the day
I've been waiting
Here for hours
For you to turn and look my way my way

I've been strung out
Like a broken dagger
Hiding out from the day
I've been waiting
Here forever
For you to turn and walk away away
