A blanket of sorrows
And a pillow of dreams
The water is rising
And I'm sinking
It seems
As if the world has stopped
From moving down the drain
And as if there was anything I could say
To help my friend
And save his life again
And I was sitting in the forest
Thinking of all the things I could know
Looking at the water flow
Riding on the wings of my mind
Thinking of the mountains of time
To the beaches of nothing
To the beaches of nothing
You shouldn't
Kill the songbird
she'll only do you good
The red flower in my garden
Is protecting my wounds
You shouldnt say
Everythings gone away
You shouldnt laugh at me
You shouldnt close the window
When only light it brings
And a bird that sings
To your heart
To your heart
The desert is dead
And the sea is red
And the mountains will crumble to your feet
As you step
Into the heat
Listening to the wind
Makes me think of me again
Listening to the past
Makes me think
How it passes fast
Quickly
Without meaning
Without leaving.
