Ghosts of the spoken word


There was a road that 
led to safe haven
where people flocked
in the light of the day

A place of rest 
and warmth for the weary
in the quiet of the night
or the rasp of the day

A friend to trade tales
for a sip of water 
a bite of a meal
a laugh and  play

But now it's time to take it away(ay)
(You are)  starting to relax
(I am) trying to find what you know
I am kindling the flame
we are starting to laugh
Trying to blind what we know

Now that road only leads to 
fenced faces
where tin foil hats 
and spears hold bay
But the ghosts of the spoken word
still linger 
where there is quiet in the night
or light in the day

'Cause it was time to take it away
They wanted a collapse
Tried to find what we wove
They kindled the flame
The light didn't last
(Their) pride prescribed what we know

Now its a crime to say it in vain
the scrolls didn't last
Once enshrined now lost
They kindled the flame
the keeper laughed
It was his time to go
