And the sky opened up and it swallowed us whole
All that's left is time and healing underground
Underneath us the cosmic dawn of war begins
We resolve and watch as it all crumbles down
Your adventure is dark and it hides beyond the cells
All I feel alive, the hearts will prevail
The stolen eye was found and given to the lost soul
While the moon sets far and the milestones seem low
Beauty fades
Deaths decay
Fires on high
Reach the sky
Branches break
Roots remain
Strong in mind
Beauty
And all that I have come to lose
Gone so long it doesn't matter anyway
And all that I have come to gain
Will remain with me until the bitter end
And when you sit and picture me
Remember sitting in the sun and dancing in the rain
The end is not the end, you see
It's just the recognition of a memory
The eyes
The face
The lips
The tongue
The end
The end
Music will always be my palladium, my wings behind my back and steady soil under my feet, be the unfading gaze that looks to the past and the hand that will always guide me into the future, warming my hand with its own, in this hushed and grim world, imperceptibly crumbling apart with each passing day.
But my roots run so deep in the earth, and there they touch yours.
Thank you for this song sparkling in its endless and awe beauty. Thank you for borrowing me your (sublime) voice so I can finally speak, breaking the silence of my longing heart.
