Faded footprints in the sand as the tide draws ever nearerthe sand that will make glass one day, and become that mirror of your demise.See those faces in the silver, silent grins of mocking gleeThey’re laughing behind they’re hidden hands at you,And what a show you are!
Cotton ball clouds in a clear blue summer sky.See the shapes and figures there?They’re so clear in your innocent eyes.Yet dark they grow with some divine sadness and down come the falling angel tears.Little falling angel tears glittering like glass.Pretty pieces of shattered glass.
Nighttime comes and in the dark, the scary shadows rise.Leering at you, hissing at you from their place in your demented mind.And you see them clearly and you taste the fear so you cuddle close to your childish things.But are you really scared of some image in the darkness?
”And the red death held sway over all.”
“And in the dream you held a gun”
very dangerous things those can be, you know.Glinting silver and bullets of gold, but that’s just a random thought you see.And in the distance the mountains stand, just out of your reach it seems.Taunting and teasing with a silent laugh that echoes in the misty air.
Fading footprints in the sand, the tide drawing ever nearer.A salty sea breeze caressing your face; tinged with the rain’s last lingering tears.And you gaze out to the ocean in its wild frenzy of life,Looking for answers, direction, some kind of purpose?But there’s nothing to be found there, is there dear?
Only the rising and falling of the waves.

The first thing in quotes comes from Shakespeare I think, I was reading the Shining you see and it was a recurring quote so… yeah.
the second thing in quotes comes from a song.
And, the title, totally random, but it came from the Shining and I really didn’t know what to call it, sorries
