Min Sia - Pauses

Stop
The first word on my mind

Stop
Thinking if it will be alright
I, still, digging graves tonight

Rest
All I ever want to do
Sun and moon does see it through
A bloody night needs a rest too

Sleep
Wish I could do the same thing
Crawlers underneath are now waking
For they know the world's dying
The sky keeps on hoping

Silence
Is that what's enough for me?
Cries and grief all over the field
What the great owl would say?
Humans made night as day
Darkness slowly in surrender

Work
Deserve to have with essence existing
But no one knows the world's dying
No one believes many lives were burning
Still, tonight I continue digging

Fear
Talking on every person's faith
Deceiving even its own weight
World's living on its veil
Captivating whom deserves to be chained

Struggle
Unleashing all defense mechanisms
Warriors on its edges fighting
Still, tonight I continue digging
For life's candles slowly fading
The dawn is now mourning

Freedom
I can see all those finish lines
But no one has ever thought if time
Still, I continue digging graves tonight
For I have heard the orchestra on its march

Destiny
The world was lost within
Who will win the wing?
Still, tonight I I continue digging

Pause
Ah! The word for the restless time!
Still, I continue digging graves tonight

Peace
The only term that is undefined
