CHROME YELLOW
DYLAN (A HOMAGE TO MY CAT)
DYLAN (A homage to my cat).
Alone now under the heavy clouds of a sleepless night
Listening to the loud silence that is around me now
Oh lad now you've left me here all in tears alone
What I wouldn't give just to see you one more time.
Our life together was a journey of unending love
But this quiet moment of you going on away to heaven
Leaves me distraught and drowned in such painful grief
These dark shadows fall all around me in longing.
The days are so dark now overcast suffocating grey skies
Memories begin to arrive and torture my soul with grief
A full tilt mountain drives it's daggers of hurt into my mind
The night wet gloomy shadows drive my feelings heart raw.
I don't want to meet this next day alone lost and forsaken
My friend has gone forever I'm bereaved I'm not here or exist
I look for him everywhere in my troubled and cursed state
No light shines in my world anymore nothing will comfort me.
It's a bleak bleak overcast worthless day get me out of this hell
I loathe the early. morning sun and all its dark black brightness
If I could hold back the starless subterranean night then I would
I know that life will get to a better time with enough time
But Dylan I miss you today tomorrow beyond the stars goodbye freind.
As dawn escaped the grey horizon and black painted clouds
I sat beside Dylan's grave like some haunted hermit in rags
Like some shape changer from the caves of grief and sorrow
Like a denizen of cold dark water drowned and forsaken
Quiet in thought hurt beyond imagination down in tears and mire.
The Wild birds don't seem to be singing in harmony or joy anymore
My beautiful Dylan my beautiful boy you will never fade with time
I witnessed your last breath lad your final moments on earth
Now the arms of the angels hold you near in sunlight heaven above
While I'm here on earth I will watch over you every day don't fear.
It's the quietest February night snowflakes covering the solid ground
Shadows scream at your going they are black and ink tear stained
And how it hurts inside my heart knowing I'll never see you again
Memories are all you've left me old photographs and faded hours
So long old pal farewell my boy goodbye Dylan where ever you may be.
Alone now under the heavy clouds of a sleepless night
Listening to the loud silence that is around me now
Oh lad now you've left me here all in tears alone
What I wouldn't give just to see you one more time.
Our life together was a journey of unending love
But this quiet moment of you going on away to heaven
Leaves me distraught and drowned in such painful grief
These dark shadows fall all around me in longing.
The days are so dark now overcast suffocating grey skies
Memories begin to arrive and torture my soul with grief
A full tilt mountain drives it's daggers of hurt into my mind
The night wet gloomy shadows drive my feelings heart raw.
I don't want to meet this next day alone lost and forsaken
My friend has gone forever I'm bereaved I'm not here or exist
I look for him everywhere in my troubled and cursed state
No light shines in my world anymore nothing will comfort me.
It's a bleak bleak overcast worthless day get me out of this hell
I loathe the early. morning sun and all its dark black brightness
If I could hold back the starless subterranean night then I would

So long old pal farewell my boy goodbye Dylan where ever you may be.
