Thumbs out on a desert road, I am toldleads to nowhereAny shade is as good as the nextif your shadow doesn't go thereWeek seven: did you really assumeI'd find some solace from the letter in your room?Next life, could you kindly refrainfrom throwing yourself at the mercy of a train?Silence all, nobody breathehow in the world could you just leaveYou promised you wouldsilence that evil with goodHear me out, I have the floorI'll give you my tears, I'll listen moreYou promised you wouldovercome evil with goodMaybe this world is a barren placefor a soul prone to get lostBut heaven still hounds from the smallest soundsto the cries of the storm-tossedWeek nine: I am writing in the sandany small clue that can help me understandEvery whispered secret, every muffled sighevery half-truth that was added to a lieSilence all, nobody moveI've got to know now what you hoped to proveYou promised you wouldsilence that evil with goodShame feeds guilt, guilt needs releaseyou took it to God, you made your peaceand swore that you wouldovercome evil with goodEvery old demon playing back the crimeif they needed blood, I'd have gladly given mineA child of the Kingdom, still an invalidforgive her, please, Father, she don't know what she didSilence all, now go to sleepthe water is free, the well is deepHow can we returnthat which we never could earn?God, I long to see her facewe haven't a hope beyond Your graceI know that You willovercome evilfor good
