The glacier melts, the water will rise
And I lay dry. I will lay dry
Pull the plug and drain it all
The rise and the fall
How long will the land remain calm
Will it mother me until scatter like dust
My sheets, my pillow, my bed
He created them along with the dreams in my head
And when I wake and stand
Those dreams like sand will drain like the hourglass I am
How long will gravity be willing to hold me
When it loses grip Iâll float into the sun
His words state that my words are wrong
Well god help me if Iâll let him tell me where I belong
But you keep planting trees that bury me
under their shadows
Carried away in the basket where I lay
Carried away. Carried away.
Sleep when you find out that Iâm dead
He left his words on the floor
Left like diamonds to explore
But I am poor so I will hoard them
Yeah I will
