The stars they sink
|
In the oceans of ink
|
Long black ribbons of cars
|
And in the taxi
|
You ask me how I'm doing
|
But you already know
|
|
Beyond, beyond is not through
|
Its only a reflection of you
|
And something at the window
|
It motions with its fingers
|
Calling me beyond
|
|
The sadness is mine
|
The sadness is mine
|
Its why you're not healing me
|
And whatever has come for me
|
Oh I can give you whatever you're wanting
|
Just take it and spare me spare me
|
Please oh tell me this is only a warning/no
|
Please have mercy let me go
|
|
If only a day to let her know
|
Without her love I'm nothing at all
|
The change is happening and I'm almost gone
|
In her heart is my faith
|
And it wins against the sadness
|
|
The train it moves through the desert
|
The horses they will challenge its stride
|
And into the boxcar she leaps
|
And is my hero
|
And penetrates the demons inside
|
|
The clouds they pass
|
But they're moving so fast
|
As I watch them collide
|
Collide and collapse in her arms like a newborn child
|
I am at one reborn
|
|
The fog in the mote
|
As he grabs me by the throat
|
It lifts as she comes
|
She opens her cloak and the color of blood
|
It is the sign of what now must come
|
|
Deny deny me my destiny
|
I am not ready to go
|
I am the horror that brings us to the morning
|
Where I will have to stand up and fight
|
