Hangman's Chair - A Thousand Miles Away

Thick is the blood and
Thin is the bond
The western son
With his eastern ghost
Forty years was too long
To hope.
Disappear and reappear
Now that you’re no more
Every time, it repeats
In my dreams
Now that you’re no more
You’ve never been so close
A thousand miles away,
It doesn’t count
Can’t keep vows and smile.
Bye now.
Bow my head, in disarray
A million miles, your new hideaway
Your new hideaway
Nine times around a shrine
Casket’s closed and turned
To ashes and coins
It was too much to ask
To take such a task
Your face’s fading out
Now that you’re no more
We carry your load
Now you’re gone
You’ve never been so close
A thousand miles away,
It doesn’t count
Can’t keep vows and smile.
Bye now.
Bow my head, in disarray
A million miles,
Your last hideaway
Your last hideaway
