Clouds of another life
Wash across the sunlight
Changing shape as they go by
Thought i saw your face there
But like them
You jus' disappear
Disappear into empty sky
Quietly
And so removed from reason
Have you ever had to reason?
The eagle comes and goes
To somewhere much higher
When the silence grows
Can you hear it, sniper?
Visions and memories
Where someone once laid flowers
For the past and things to come
Thought you were gone
But i can feel you
Turn around
Turn around yes, and there you are
Here again
Can you give it some meaning?
Ask again, but you say nothing
Motion with no sound
Ice inside the fire
The stillness in the storm
Silence hides the sniper
Eagles come and go
To someplace much higher
And when the silence grows
Can you hear it, sniper?
What goes through your sniper's mind?
