lyrics

All I have known
Burns to grey
And all I own
Breaks with breaking day
The dust and bones
That line the winding way
I crawl alone
Fire in my hand
A relic of the sun
A grain of sand
The burning day is done
And here I stand
Where ancient waters used to run
Caressed the living land
All we have lost
Light as air
Heavy as the moss
No longer there
The bitter frost
The searing glare
We always knew the cost
Now the patterns move so slowly
Currents drifting on
There are no birds to hold the silence
Just before the dawn
Is there movement in the ashes
After we are gone
Is there light enough to rise
Hide, hide me here
The center of your light
The edges of my fear
Dissolve into the night
Flare and disappear
The dying star so bright
So cold and clear
Hide, hide me here
The center of your light
The edges of my fear
Dissolve into the night
Flare and disappear
The dying star so bright
So cold and clear
