lyrics

Beneath the dying waves
Beyond their naming day
Before the stirring breath
I found the last undying place

I reach out across the sea
Press my body against the whimpering wind
And when this cliff just might refuse to carry on
I dive in

Ooooooo

I’m a string without a tone
Ride the sky to the source of the sun
I’m the ages as they sweep across a landscape on the run

And now I see the marionette
The static rising out of a current in the air
You were just a stagehand on the set
I can forgive I can’t forget

Ooooooo

Driving through the autumn rain
Carrion carried on and on, state to state
False peaks I see and still believe
I’m lifeless as these starched sheets

Fall to feel to shake it free
My soul a mise en abyme for no one to read
You taught me how the seed erupts
Now I’m forever covered up

Ooooooo
