I've known you so long
And never saw cause for alarm
Recall our childhood song
An oath to never lay down arms
I feel a coming end
It's as if I see through it all
Now, would you know if I was gone?
An epoch of brothers dissolves
To leave you is a sin
For my own story, forced to begin
ย
I see you here
But you're so far away
So far
ย
Understanding the lines drawn for our limiting
Inspires blind conformity and fuels rebellion
Equally
Faster now
Ride the wires
Seek what lies beyond
Your words like choir
Cast a spear
Through the ceiling
Leave that hand behind
That pulls back on the dream
Would I hidะต my eyes?
Would you know my face
If I was drะตaming of the years to come?
Your spirit unaligned with choice of fervor
As for now
Still my fire
Fear the thoughts that come
When ardour's breath grows tired
Hold the spear
Trust your feelings
Burn with gentle song
To oceansize my heart
ย
The woods call on me
In their depths, there's a vague light leading
Painting the ragged shapes
Of crooked beings that spring from odious groves
ย
Upon my gathering of sun-faded blooms
I came upon a failed goddess decrying her shame
Lost that feeling of a world beyond today
Without heart to guide I know you've nothing left to say
Upon my offering of wilted herb and moss
The deity sprang forth with spite and curse into the glade
Dying
I've had visions where the night had come to stay
I could be mistaken and see bright skies return
One day
ย
The woods expel me
On the edge stands the ghost of my bleeding
But I've planted my seed
Of objection to set us free
ย
I've known you so long
I know that you never belonged
I've watched you never change
All alone with the same sad song
You've seen the coming end
In any case, seen through it all
I was blind to what you saw
Caught in my last failing cry
Lost in the night's howling wind
And crashing shadows, you left me
Pushed by the forces of your own abandonment
You left me
You left me!
