Roads to Anadyr: Before and until

wedding chimes and nursery rhymes
are never really you
always dressed in melancholy
and world view shaded blue

what do you want to know?
what do you wish to do?
where do you long to go?
where is the life for you?

before blood flows cold
before your world turns old
before all the tales are told
before your truth is sold

before the time is still
and waters are tranquil
before and until
the final chill

before it all
before the final call
what do you want to get?
and what you still regret?

before it all
before the heavens fall
what do you want to get?
and what to forget?

nightingales singing gloomy tales
tapping on your door
drawn by melancholy
descending there once more

who do you want to hold?
when your hands are gray and cold
where did you wish to be?
upon the death of your esprit

what are the words to say?
where is your trust today?
when did you wander astray?
wrapping your life in a sheer cliche

before the time is still
and waters are tranquil
before and until
the final chill

before it all
before the final call
what do you want to get?
and what you still regret?

before it all
before the heavens fall
what do you want to get?
and what to forget?

...before and until...
...before and until...

look at the ashes of your world tree
what's the fact for you to agree?
is there an angel for you to see?
or is it a banshee smiling of glee?

what are the deeds to do?
where are the seeds for you?
to plant, grow, protect from rust
forever saving from turning to dust

look at the shadows night casts
seize the moment while it lasts
and make your peace with the past
for tomorrow, forever, make it to last

look at the mist behind the wall
and fading light down the hall
and the thing assigned for you to fulfill
before, before and until
