The vision of her comes along to haunt me
Searching for the words to set her free
Sitting down I let the music take me
She was always the best company
I drink to her in amber-trapped amazement
Soft incantation breathed into my form
This chrysalis life that slowly creaks and turns
Not sure if these wings are fully formed
And I'm weary of these songs of isolation
And a thousand more of a world that's fallen down
And those banshees they keep screaming the illusion
And a quiet song keeps calling me to drown
Look into a mirror that is broken
The strip lights keep flickering my shame
If I let love bring flood to this desert plain
Surely I could live again
Those sweetest moments of never knowing
We're pointing our ladders to the sky
The melody draws you to horizons
How will we know when we don't know how to try?
And I'm weary of these songs of isolation
And a thousand more of a world that's fallen down
And those banshees they keep screaming the illusion
And her quiet song keeps calling me to drown
Calling me to drown
Love keeps calling me to drown
