All you who weep in your halls of stone
All you who dream in your bed alone
Barren and blossom-less like dry lands
Blossom-less and barren as the dry land
All you weak who limp along
All you liars longing for a lover's song
Barren and blossom-less like dry lands
Blossom-less and barren as the dry land
I am coming
I am coming
Streams in the desert
Running for the hill side

you breathe the air I breathe
you tread the soil I tread
bending to break
you soften not shake
bruised not betrayed
beside burning flames
believe me when I say that said
books and volumes of each phrase
do you float before my face
in the blackness of space
can I speak your name
speak, spirit, call me by the same

die on display
hide not from me your pain
die on display
hang remain on the cross of your own making
this is love
that we would share in each other's suffering

give and take
curse and praise
love and shame
give and take

sometimes I think about the days that were
memories go by like leaves on a river
long were the hours and faithful the rains
your love was an anchor before my name changed
all of those leaves dead and dying they drift
and well I recall the last time I quit
seldom the storms and swift the calendar
calloused and creaking like skin in winter

Inner Eye
02:44
|
|||
|
every night as I lie beside you
I aspire to bind my wandering inner eye
all I try I betray your
shining heart in murmuring moonlight
honest art deprived of deceit
pride inside, diatribes, white lies
looking past the stained glass mirrors
of the past, drying tears
formless, void - time destroyed
who could move me like you?
who could prove me like you?

Drowning, in White
03:52

have you come to put an end to me?
free my body unto longed for light
have you arrived, right and highly
have no mercy on my mind?
tell me something, anything and I'll believe you
tell me something, everything yet I'll still believe
