The Solar, Starry, and Mundane - Aux Meadows

Seen through these dreamless eyes Blind buildings stark to the sky Silhouettes as dividing walls Guarding the eternal secret Where is the flame to haunt you And who do you answer to My lies are always wishes Lies that make me See beyond the rationale We accept the fate that nothing is meant to be Be the least connected Stay true to the last original Apply layers to reality Things only you can see Add a beat to normality To tap the core of insanity I let my dreams cross over To days of endless grey If I could merge the mundane and the magic We'd forge a new unknown I let my dreams cross over To nothingness and back again If I could merge the mundane and the magic Where is the dark I came to find In latter days as time will find you Memories will never let you get closer The silent sighs in useless company Wish for darkness and death again In the face of ignorance and fear I cast it right back Some things were never there to begin with Objectivity is truth denied Apply layers to reality Things only you can see Add a beat to normality To tap the core of insanity I let my dreams cross over To days of endless grey If I could merge the mundane and the magic We'd forge a new unknown I let my dreams cross over To nothingness and back again If I could merge the mundane and the magic Where is the dark I came to find

Oh, oh, starry eyed Hit, hit, hit, hit, hit me with lightning Handle bars, and then I let go, let go for anyone Take me in, and throw out my heart and get a new one Next thing we're touching You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning Ahhh Oh, everybody's starry-eyed And everybody glows Oh, everybody's starry-eyed And my body goes Whoa oh oh ah ah Whoa oh oh ah ah Whoa oh oh So we burst into colors, colors and carousels, Fall head first like paper planes in playground games Next thing we're touching You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning Ahhhh Oh, everybody's starry-eyed And everybody goes Oh, everybody's starry-eyed And my body glows Whoa oh oh ah ah Whoa oh oh ah ah Whoa oh oh Next thing we're touching Next thing we're touching Next thing we're touching Next thing we're touching Next thing we're touching Next thing we're touching Next thing we're touching Next thing we're touching Hit me with lightning Oh, everybody's starry-eyed And everybody glows Oh, everybody's starry-eyed And my body goes Oh, everybody's starry-eyed And everybody glows Oh, everybody's starry-eyed And my body goes Whoa oh oh ah ah Whoa oh oh ah ah Whoa oh oh ah ah

I close my eyes The lantern dies The scent of awakening Wild-honey and dew Childhood games Woods and lakes Streams of silver Toys of olden days Meadows of Heaven Meadows of Heaven The flowers of wonder And the hidden treasures In the meadow of life My acre of Heaven A five-year-old winter heart In a place called home Sailing the waves of past Meadows of Heaven Meadows of Heaven Meadows of Heaven Meadows of Heaven Rocking chair without a dreamer A wooden swing without laughter Sandbox without toy soldiers Yuletide without the flight Dream-bound for life Flowers wither Treasures stay hidden Until I see the first star of fall I fall asleep and see it all Mother's care and color of the kites (Heaven) (Heaven) Meadows of Heaven Meadows of Heaven (Heaven) Meadows of Heaven Meadows of Heaven Meadows of Heaven Meadows of Heaven (Heaven, Heaven, Heaven)

Pale hands with shakey rings Stale taste for finer things Have you thought of what it really means Now to let somebody in? If I said I'm ready now Would you darling show me how To blindly give it all out loud? Until I'm wearing thin Could you rid your devils? Could you stay and settle down? Just to pass the time with me Could you rid your devils? Run through fields and meadows Does it scare you when you think, when you think? Low tide but rising fast We'll all die so nothing lasts All I know is that you make me laugh Babe, so I'll go down with you If I say I'm willing now Would you darling show me how To make you smile from tucked inside the crowd? Like I'm singing right at you Could you rid your devils? Could you stay and settle down? Just to pass the time with me Could you rid your devils? Run through fields and meadows Does it scare you when you think, when you think? Wake up, you know I saw you I know now that I'm falling You turn your back to me and spread this damn disease Left all these questions in my head Way down, I hit the damn ground It burns because it's so finished You know I can't believe I guess you felt the need To set this fire to our bed Could you rid your devils? Could you stay and settle down? Just to pass the time with me Could you rid your devils? Run through fields and meadows Does it scare you when you think, when you think?
