Spelled In Waters - Van Canto

Phrases laughing right in your face

Writing depth into this shallowness

Carving a name just to leave a trace

A body resounding with hollowness

Meaning, please come onto me

Explain these deeds of vanity

With every failure and every falter

May my name be spelled in waters

So many words, but nothing to say

Still I’m waiting for a sense to come

I am silent.

Words took my voice away

Tamed and harmless I am.

All alone

This empty page best remains forsaken

Describing roads already taken

Echoing what was heard before

Irrelevance immortalized

Please try to remember me

«Someone who has always tried.»

But uttered words do not live long

Silence will engulf this song
