Analysis of Seasons Of Grief
Whispers Of My Soul 1994 (Nottingham)
Days are gone,
Night is day.
Pain buried inside,
Painting on my masquerade.
Universe can hear my souls cries,
Shooting stars - of another year gone by.
My lord hears my prayers,
Patience, worries and fears.
The earth rotates.
The volcano inside me quakes.
Hope blossoming in the spring,
Grasping reality as the wind sings.
