Then all bent and turned itself to smoke
Lesions filled with questions
Appeared as soon as I awoke
Will you persist?
Practicing the end before the start
The way I'm crawling sideways
You're better off if I depart
Won't you dismiss me?
Dismiss me
I'm tired and applauded for an answer
That's slipping
♪
Appearing as a statue
While running through the trees
One earth kept its balance
But luckily there were more I could not see
They were born of nothing
Stay with me
Stay with me
You've let me in
So graciously
Secretive emotions the universe will keep
Punishment or privilege
It offers you an opening to peek
This is the way
This is the light
Yet suddenly
Becoming much too bright
♪
The treasure should never have been unearthed
Reality twists and reveals its worth
The clock is set forever in reverse
My revelation's just a memory to nurse
♪
Free the eyes of the reverence within
That well has dried
Nothing I imagine can compare
I'll be a passerby
Do they ever see the final world
That they create?
Or is it the very nature of its heart
To arrive one moment too late
♪
I just wanted to escape to your domain
Mine's not the same
Wandering, vibrant stream
Burrowing purpose
Soon as it has touched my hand
It's far too near
What I hold dear
Cannot be stained by me
Leave it there
I've a window and a chair
Burning throat, make me float
Let me lie where
Ego does not dare, but still aware
♪
A web of dead converging branches
Drips with blood and squandered chances
There's something I missed here
♪
I peer through the woods onto the altar
I knew that dreams could bend
And often falter
But this is not the same
Not cowardice or pain
The fundamental void
Is staring blankly
♪
Lead or follow, maybe this is over
Flee the spring before the bar is lowered
Clearly this cannot capture the holy
Precedent that will forever hunt me
♪
We will not dismiss thee, dismiss thee
Forever you'll chase the answer
That's missing
