Questions Kept lyrics

Often to think as to why then

They who bore the same burdens

The same joys, curiosities and fears

Held fast within their worlds

Are as though fuzzy figments

Corpseless names assigned

Etched in weathered stone

Or perhaps without a marking

Generations fielded in passing

Now but mildewed monuments

To wear away in the long eons

A brief attempt at immortality

To preserve the corruptible

Their tenements temporal stood

Once of carved finery masonic

Crumbling now or so razed ago

Ages ago that seem but a dream

As if a twilight 'tween day and night

A nebulous world caught amidst

Only its shadows like the trees

Sunlight casts upon the ground

When the wind animates leaves

Then in winter swing barren limbs

So defined among the winds cast

Our senses give limits to us

The world that can be seen

What we want so to perceive

The fallacies of reality individual

Some never to awaken to it

A day will come when another

Will glance upon somber stones

To wonder of time's murky mists
