The mountains dangle from the skies
And the clouds drift slowly below my feet
Dark faces flash in and out of my sight
As the wind pulls me in every direction cruelly.
Let go, I shout; Make it stop, I scream.
But laughs of lifeless souls poison the air.
Swaying as a lost leaf torn beyond repair,
Yellowed from the pain of parting with life
And it's such a lonely lonely planet flooded
With wraiths scavenging precious capsules of life
That are found in the hearts of souls complete.
But wraiths, they stop the heart from beating.
Wraiths, they hold the capsules in their scabbed palms
And crush them beyond the hope of love.
They will drain the world of the softness of rain
And infect the sweet scent of fresh flowers.
They will lay to waste the gardens I played in.
But I will watch as they drown my home in decay.
I cannot see as you see, or believe as you do
The sun will blind me if I venture out in search of life.
There is no eraser to wipe away the distance
There is no thread to stitch me back to my capsule of life.
I am moving towards the shadows, wraiths waiting to take me.
But stash me away I beg, envelop me in your capsule of life.
And the clouds drift slowly below my feet
Dark faces flash in and out of my sight
As the wind pulls me in every direction cruelly.
Let go, I shout; Make it stop, I scream.
But laughs of lifeless souls poison the air.
Swaying as a lost leaf torn beyond repair,
Yellowed from the pain of parting with life
And it's such a lonely lonely planet flooded
With wraiths scavenging precious capsules of life
That are found in the hearts of souls complete.
But wraiths, they stop the heart from beating.
Wraiths, they hold the capsules in their scabbed palms
And crush them beyond the hope of love.
They will drain the world of the softness of rain
And infect the sweet scent of fresh flowers.
They will lay to waste the gardens I played in.
But I will watch as they drown my home in decay.
I cannot see as you see, or believe as you do
The sun will blind me if I venture out in search of life.
There is no eraser to wipe away the distance
There is no thread to stitch me back to my capsule of life.
I am moving towards the shadows, wraiths waiting to take me.
But stash me away I beg, envelop me in your capsule of life.
