I've Been Walking, Pt. 1a

歌詞

I've been walking Tired earth Old air From its birth Could have been A part of your life There are no deals There's no destination No holy land No El Dorado Just a grain of sand There's no salvation No spring at Lourdes No secret mantras No super cure Magic lanterns Drowned in day Magic lanterns out The silent oars Dip the dark Stars in water Obey the deep Let it sleep Forever wanting To break the shell Of uniform Believe the burn Heed the warning Four horsemen in the night Riding in the shallow light Having sworn to carry fire In a lithograph with hands alight The smiling spider fooled the fly Released the trap before the trial Just an orphaned line Doesn't read much Oh, the manuscript's light Fragment of present I traveled seas and moors I knelt down at every altar Yellow straw has been my bed Under bridges, in the snow Out of the street, under the city Birds overhead flying south from the cold Follow the signs, smoke from the chimneys Where do you search for what you don't know? I lost it down a rabbit hole And it's me you have been looking for When the wind accelerated flame Across the barren sands River running backwards snake was crawling To release the damned Decide The market square has been surrounded Divide The miracle outshines
