lyrics

I passed over a cloud where I could not look down
to see the fauna and flora a-mixing
a nectar so sweet
to challenge the beat
of temptation's black heart reaffixing.
I came back to the earth and sat at the hearth,
warmed by the wood set a-burning.
But laying so low
the angle won't show
just how slowly these lands are a-turning.

I gave you a rock to keep in your pocket
in an attempt to keep you from rising.
Told you a thing
but the harmonic ring
distracted your ears from my lying.
So I begged for the rain but when the water came
it weighed down my garments like shackles
and I couldn't run
to a circle of sun
where the water might lift from me backwards.

I pulled greens from the ground
and without smile nor frown
tilted my head in contemplation.
What indifference is this
that brings me to twist
those petals from their perfect arrangements?
