lyrics

I.

i brush the air with tattered thoughts –
the dark stalks upon my wings.
i slow and burn in the haze of the evening song.

with eyes wide and blank,
nights and mornings slip right past.
amidst the days and nights,
between the soar and the dive,
i feel myself falling back.

the heart and mind again echo, quietly,
reminding thoughts that cannot depart –

II.

and was it I who swept the grounds so dry?
and was it I who swept the grounds so dry?

my hands got carried far away
to clean the mem'ries of the mind;
there was no magic,
nothing cast unto the sky.

try did i to find the self
which falls to ghost at day,
who wishes on the starlit sky,
believing dreams as all that may.

i did try to find that self
which falls to ghost at day,
but only dust did catch my hands,
with-holding neither path nor way.

those hands can kindle stars that burn so high,
or wipe them dark into the torrid day.

but could it be?
the stars fail not
they cannot fall?
i fall to that of, of my own call?

the stars fail not, they cannot fall.
i fall to that of my own call.
the stars fail not, they cannot fall.
i fall to that of my own call...

III.

reminding evermore,
the heart and mind have not a choice,
and little can they do when i hear that of my own voice.

a new morn has risen in the deep dark sky,
and even if it should fall i will keep looking

reminding evermore,
the heart and mind have not a choice,
and little can they do when i hear that of my own voice...

a new morn as risen, in the deep dark sky,
even if it should fall i will keep on looking...

the stars fail not, they cannot fall,
i fall to that of my own call.
the stars fail not, they cannot fall,
i fall to that of my own call.
