Down to the wire Sow the fields of fire Low, sick and tired Know they are mining our minds Drown in the dead of winter Flow rivers are dying Plow fruitless and barren Ghosts drinking the ocean dry Bones are not forgotten Ground, decayed, and rotten Found in earthly matter Souls intertwining decline Crow his eyes upon you See the stars aligning Now we'll be remembered Born upon the high wide skies
Above the earth we are drifting As ash ever falling
Take time and time again As if there is no end We have lost our way It's a long way down from here Our minds are mirror deep No whispered secrets keep The eye within the eye Time will lay us all low
True wealth between our fingers slips As we count the dead
We ride the rise and fall This silence covers all We climb toward the light Overturning mountains in the dark We are the empty space Our lives will leave no trace From the other side Of the dusk and breaking dawn
