There’s the sound of a plane
Roaring to silence
When I open my eyes it will fade
In the distance.
There’s a taste on my tongue
From the hot air we breathed
I can still feel your skin
and the sun.
And its hard to recall how we came into a stall…
Well its all so easy
When our dream plays the puppeteer
But I fell out of space.
And in laws of gravity
You were pulling upon the strings
And my heart hung by a thread
Maybe I was to blame.
There’s an odd silver lining
At the end of the road
I will see you again in the house
On our hill.
In this book made of dreams
Full of empty pages…
All the wars we fought were missing
While I’m holding onto the same old pictures of you.
Well its all so easy
When our dream plays the puppeteer
But I fell out of space.
And in laws of gravity
You were pulling upon the strings
And my heart hung by a thread
Maybe I was to blame.
Yeah maybe I fell out of place.
If my heart had been lighter
But it turned to stone
When the forces of attraction got stronger
And you tried to control
What was meant to be free
Then my dreams played the puppeteer
Yeah.
But in laws of gravity
You were pulling upon the strings
And my heart hung by a thread
And maybe I was to blame.

You were always here with me
in the forrest of my demons
Finally recalled you through the trees
I was hunting for some reasons
interferences in forms of judgment
Wasted time comparing
To let go the path I was on
Too many doubted the way.
With you i feel complete.
Like a quiet body of seas
When the faraway storms
are hitting by the shores
I am peace.
Laying across a little row boat
I am wondering where you are taking me
Eyes are shut trying to stay afloat
Swinging our bodies at the seas
The sun has almost reached touch down
Soon there ll be just you and I
Morning rolls in with shores or nothing.
Stars shifting’s our only sense of time,
With you i feel complete.
Like a quiet body of seas
When the faraway storms
are hitting by the shores
I am peace.
Tides, come and go
But I’ll lay right here.
Till you bring on an ocean
Over my soul
Over my soul… you
Were always here with me
With you
I am Peace.

When the ice is melting and the rivers are swelling.
Makeshift winter roads are no longer practicable.
We’ve got to find new ways to make the journey back home.
To reach the mountains back,
Home.
Open your heart and settle the winter ice
Look around how beautiful
When reason and judgements aren’t the law
Go on,
And Walk the open road
Go on,
Just walk the open road
When the grounds are shifting and your home in sighting
And you meet a wandering soul
by the edge of a forrest
remember what you’re looking for
in the first place
In the first place
Open your heart and settle the winter ice
Look around how beautiful
When reason and judgements aren’t the law
Go on,
And Walk the open road
Go on,
Just walk the open road
And here I stand
I’ve been watching clouds
Collide
Where the stars can’t hide
Come on walk with me a while
A while….
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
A while.

You’ve been listening
To everyone else
They said your broken wings
Would crumble under your weight
Let the clowns run their show
While you fix them as you go
Go…
Feel the wind at your fingertips
And lighten up the load
Open up this gate
And set all your props away
And rise,
Rise
You’ve been trying to please
Everyone else
With their make-believes
You got in, over your head.
Let them fool themselves
While you find your own.
Own… self.
Feel the wind at your fingertips
And lighten up the load
Open up this gate
And set all your props away
And rise,
Rise
(Interlude)
Rise, rise
Keep your head up
In the sky
And hold on
Yeah hold on
Please
To this magic flight.
When your feet are back
On the ground
Feel the lights above you rise
And fall in line
All Fall in line
Or Fall in line
Fall in line
