I can sit here and watch
As it all folds away into winter
And pretend I'm surprised
By the darkling skies and the rain
Or I can sit here and wait
For death to come upon me like a stranger
I can sit here all night
The fog rolling in and getting thicker
I can sit here and drowse
To the low, sad song of morning
The pain of falling leaves
The awkward reprieve of the day
I can sit here and dream
But I can't remember the singing
I can sit here and dwell
Alone and disappearing
I can sit here and stare
As you shuffle the pieces once again
And search for the woods
That flutter like birds across your eyes
I can sit in the dirt and try to unearth
The last of you buried there
I can sit here and wait
I can sit here and wait
I can sit here and wait
I can sit here and wait
Wait
I can sit here and wait
Wait
