about

abstract companion - first track for new album

lyrics

sipping moon beams
the seeds of desire
it's so far away
not just lost and burning
you've come too far to try
gone so far your bones are still scarred
there's no turning back though
these four walls have seen
when everything is at stake
in this haunted play
and the clockwork turns again
i close my eyes softly
as the shades go red


you're gone from here
take me to somewhere far away
in someone else's dreamless nightmare
where dreams must lead us
there must be something here
just for me to believe in
now i'm as sad as i can be
i want to find the words i've been meaning to say
it's so far away
not just lost and burning
you've come too far to try

in some dark cave
out on the shore line
you saw above the clouds a starry pool
that you thought would make the water flow
not really calm the chill of your pain
as it lifted in the eyes of another world
your silence was silent as it used to be
and you held your breath with both hands against the tide
as i watched your shadow fade beneath the sun


and as the tears that broke from your eyes
to dry the teardrops of yesterday's flowers
i held my breath and i felt the earth
shake me away i'm still alive

and as the tears that broke from your eyes
to dry the teardrops of yesterday's flowers
i held my breath
