The Conductors Departure - Anata[00:00:00]
Written by:Anata[00:00:00]
Drawn by a sad melody[00:01:49]
I enter this old theater[00:01:53]
I walk through corridors[00:01:57]
But for the music all is still[00:02:00]
I reckon I'm late for the show[00:02:04]
Strange to say there is no crowd[00:02:08]
But enchanted by the sound[00:02:12]
I start to walk down one of two aisles[00:02:15]
But as I reach the stage[00:02:48]
I find the orchestra motionless[00:02:52]
Like frozen in their play[00:02:57]
All covered up in cobwebs[00:03:01]
Indicating the time that passed[00:03:05]
All in their evening attire[00:03:16]
Beautiful[00:03:21]
Like an old monochrome photograph[00:03:22]
Bows lie still on violins' strings[00:03:25]
From their instruments[00:03:30]
It's but an echo between these walls[00:03:34]
And has so been for years[00:03:39]
Yet ever so strong[00:03:41]
Their eyes focus in the direction[00:03:56]
Where the conductor once was stood[00:04:01]
He'd rule them from the podium[00:04:10]
And they'd anxiously obey[00:04:14]
Any gesture he would make[00:04:17]
No one could in their wildest dreams[00:04:38]
Imagine that he while he'd conduct[00:04:42]
Would cast a spell and turn them into[00:04:46]
Stone statuesque proud but sad[00:04:50]
The conductor departed but left this dirge[00:04:53]
To accomany their destiny[00:04:57]
I panic as I realize[00:05:01]
The podium was nobody else's place[00:05:05]
Paralyzed by insight[00:05:29]
I'm viewing my own life[00:05:33]
All my hopes and dreams[00:05:38]
All that could have been[00:05:42]
Turned to stone[00:05:44]
As I stepped down from my throne[00:05:45]
