come down from the lion's back
call down to the endless sleepers
bring light to the dimming days
that run in an endless stream
now
in the black of the eye
in the heat of the act
is a crack in the ice
come down from the iron wheel
come back from the endless labor
look down on the rolling waves
that strike on the crumbling reef
now
is what the body becomes
in the bellow aloud
in the crack of the drum
and as the body dies
what is left of the heart
burns white
no light on the western shore
no sign of the ships at anchor
no sound but the roaring winds
no warmth but the life behind the eye
and what the body allows
is a flash in the heart
until the memory dies
and a forever life
is an infinite lie
hung wide

He knows no shame, and takes no blame
This simpleton, sees everything
He's only satisfied, to point out other's mistakes
Never afraid, to use his pride

His tradition is old, his faith a hand-me-down, the family
He wears them on his sleeve, morale and values left under a christmastree
He once had the gift, this image in his grandparents eyes
No guns, no drugs, no rape, no end

This vacant soul, is pale and blue, in empty gaze, his crow's feet are
A vision of defeat sick and tired of the meaninglessness
The irrationale he's desensitized, his every need and emotion
A cup half empty, but full of euphoria he's,
Searching for the light switch in the dark, to switch his routine
To find a reason, to find faith in piece of mind
When one too many beliefs die, it's tough to see through these black eyes

Everyone forgives everyone forgets
Everyone is true and no one here will lie to you

He knows the truth, he knows the truth, here nothing's certain
Disregard what you've learned, to find faith in piece of mind
All of their gods died with his peace, I should know him that heathen抯 me

An empty street
An empty house
A hole inside my heart
I�m all alone
The rooms are getting smaller
I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had
The songs we sang together
Oh yeah
And all my love
We�re holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far

Chorus
So I say it in a breath
Hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again my love
All the seas go coast to coast
Find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again my love

I tried to read
I go to work
I�m laughing with my friends
But I can�t stop
To keep myself from thinking

Oh no
I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had
The songs we sang together
Oh yeah
And all my love
We�re holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far

Chorus
So I say it in a breath
Hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again my love
All the seas go coast to coast
Find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again

To hold you in my arms
To promise you my love
To tell you from my heart
You�re all I�m thinking of
Reaching for the love that seems so far

Chorus
So �So I say it in a breath
Hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again my love
All the seas go coast to coast
Find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again my love
See you in a prayer
Dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again my love
All the seas go coast to coast
Find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again my love
