Autumn - Quiet Friend lyrics

He accompanies me through wind and rain When I'm in agony and pain He warns me for the change, the change of tide And tells me when and where to hide When I was born along came he When I arose he came alive in me But only I was recognized Vivid in their dream No one saw him gleam How selective they wish to perceive In the lie, they want to believe The trees blossom acknowledged The roots denied Because if he'd be noticed They'd tremble, terrified Why not speak of him freely? Of the one hushed so ruthlessly? He who offers the ultimate escape Out of this treacherous world full rape To me, a friend Guardian of my final breath To them, their greatest fear They call him "DEATH"
