Dreamed I Saw Soldiers

Climbed out the window And stared at the stars But the moment I wanted Had already passed... Lost in the silence... Blessed by the night... Dreamed I saw soliders They were all dressed in white... Well, the summer came late So I slept here for days 'till winter was over My heart could be saved I walked for a lifetime And I climbed in a hole She had breasts on the outside She had death in her soul Death in her soul Placed in a bottle And flung out to sea I was stung by the thought That the ship was not near Lost in the silence Blessed by the night Dreamed I saw soldiers They were all dressed in white All dressed in white Fell about nature And fell for a wave that would shake me all over, Spin me around Twisted my feelings 'Till I nearly drowned It was love at first sight The first time around, time around Stared at the walls 'Till they lost all retort Waiting for words They said I'd been cursed All in all Cried in the shade So what has become Of our love Of our love? Well, all the neighbors They've stolen my stash I write poems about death; Ain't finished one yet Lost in the silence Blessed by the night Dreamed I saw soldiers They were all dressed in white All dressed in white
