My consciousness slipped from green to gray
Across the dreams of wishes
Fading sunlight passed through the glass
The words on the page slept silently
My mind ran around in circles
Circles circles my mind ran around in circles
The silence seemed like a thousand years
Echoing in a giant church
Can I fade into you
Can I please just fade into you
Fade away
Fade away from this earth
I have never been this lonely
Hold my breath for seventeen years
Hold my breath for seventeen moons
The moon is still in the sea
And the sea is still in me
Quiet water filling up my soul
Salty depths a mystery in the light
Looking out the window
The tales of the sky come apart
And there are no more hopes
The castles have melted away
Like glass in the sun or sand in a fishbowl
The fish goes around and around in the water
And still the water is clear and cold
A thousand seas was the promise
The breath has left the seas
It is strange how the wind floats along
And there is no voice
I will never open myself up to anyone again
This is why I stick to myself
The ache of silver is like the breath of indigo
The water pools in little droplets
The dew forms on the sun like rain drips down the window
Your heart is like a million years
Some kind of starshine fell from the ceiling
And the drops of light landed on me
The stardust of a million years past
Like hopeless shining gleaming glass
The hands of time circled around
And the clock ticked and it was no different
Nothing was different nothing was different
Still there was silence and still there was nothing
The chin on the windowsill
Looking out the window
Became part of the windowsill
After so long
Dreams come apart and no one hears the sound
No one cares
A silent symphony ending in nothing
The beautiful music stopped playing and no one cared
Crimson lamplight filled the room
And covered the darkness of the street
A music box tinkled in the corner
And I was asleep on the carpet
Can I fade away into the carpet
Fade into the carpet forever
Can I please just stay there
Back in time forever and ever
Lemon juice swirled around in the water
Like quiet food coloring on a Saturday afternoon
Can the quiet of the ice cubes
Be the quiet of the earth
The tree is there where it has always been
It is quiet and the wind blows through the leaves
The fountain flows on
The stream in the woods does too
