Every year we are hurried so slowly
|
We vain our fears from the hurt that is holy
|
We lose our lives in the light of October
|
And compromise, HalloweenĄ¯s getting colder
|
|
And we're off on the golden ground
|
As we swim in a sea of sound
|
By the look in my eyes we're out
|
Till the morning comes around
|
|
Put my hands in the dark of December
|
And burning bends through the souls that ember
|
Scream our eyes but it cost us the winter
|
Gather one in a flash of a splinter
|
|
And we watch the fight ,stand down
|
Get lost to the place we found
|
In the desert dreams will drown
|
Till the morning comes around
|
|
Dragonflies and the scent of the sea moves
|
Enslave july and you know you must leave her
|
Summer days are a strong everlasting
|
Autumn phase one more year in its passing
|
