The Failing Song








As youths we used to talk at night
Of joys that life was going to bring our way
& The failures of our forebears









Were as clear to us as the cold light of day
But now these days are dead & gone
& The future that we had is now the past






& It's cobwebs that we cling to
Our aspirations turned to ashes in our hands
