Song of Innocence, Pt. 1 - My Brother The Wind

Sweet child of innocence Living in the present tense Father time will take his toll Rack your body and steal your soul What became of all the years Are you drowning in your tears? Who will catch you when you fall? Who will hear you when you call? I will comfort you, take your hand and see you through I will take you through the door Who do you think you are? Try to live forever and you won't get far I wait behind your door It makes no difference if you're rich or poor Though you're weary and afraid Still you try to flee my blade Come and walk in my new land If you'll only take my hand I will comfort you, take your hand and see you through I will take you through the door In the image of those who have walked before me here I am cast in the web of an ancient spell I am holding on to life, I'm drifting in the stream Everything's much clearer now We live within a dream and never wake No, we never [Incomprehensible] Judge not how, what you see More than you can count are here with me Give up your foolish pride All that walk the earth have died What became of all the years Are you drowning in your tears? Who will catch you when you fall? Who will hear you when you call? I will comfort you, take your hand and see you through I will take you through the door I will comfort you, take your hand and see you through I will take you through the door

There was a dark And all this There was a darkness I liked Dancing on the sails on dawn Dancing on the sails and they're gone I brought this I brought it for you I brought the sight, I brought the light I brought the time you wanted I brought it like a savior and I Knew what I couldn't do Drowning like a savior And I knew what I could So much I could never do You said it was easy To see you with your eyes closed That there was nothing to me Seeing through me There was nothing to me No one knew me The lightless floor, the closing doors Falling up, just see me once more I know I'm scared
