Autumn, Where is she? Standing alone in the dark at the back of her room In her own gloom Autumn, When did she? Been there today in the park with a pact for the tomb She's fallen so soon Mackey, Come quickly Sipping on tea at his desk at that time of the day Oh please go away Mackey, Please hear me Sirens are on and the rest are all well on thier way Whats there to say Phillip Is watching, Silent he swings, from his seat at the edge of the park Its getting near dark Phillip She's dieing Holding his hands for the beat in her chest from her heart He's falling apart Mackey How is she Feeling for strength as the tears in his eyes start to sting He wears her ring Mackey I'm sorry Says Phillip as he appears, its a terrible thing I can't do a thing Autumn, When did she Been here all day in the park with a bag for the birds Nothing absurd Autumn How could she Leave me alone, in the dark in this world, not a word Never occurred Phillip Is leaving, Been a long night, must get back to his flat on the lake Tomorrow he'll wake Phillip Starts crying, Nothing to do don't look back on that night in mistake Her life to take Mackey Sits calmy, Just yesterday she was here now she's gone just the same It all remains Autumn I miss you Talking to stills at the rear of the room bareing her name You will remain..... |

Its just a story...Autumn commits suicide, Phillip is nearby when she does it, he can't save her, Mackey's the policeman who comes the scene, he's also her husband. Hope this helps clear it up. |
