lyrics

I stood for so long I was stone and I was gone
Then when I arose I felt the light on my face I like that very much
Then I walked, I ran, and my knees peeled
And soon my hair was washed and my feet to, and I was just like you
Chorus
I awoke, to a memory
and I felt the earth firm beneath my feet
Oh just like history
When I arose I felt the vines release me, oh release
It all crumbed down
All of my dreams, my love, my own
And how did it feel?
When my power raised, heard it hardened your face
I always worshiped the moon, ordained by the sky
And I followed its light, oh to shadow
And I lay my laurels down
I look to you, a side I never knew

Did you see me in your dreams?
Did you hear me in the night?
Could you still hear my cries?
Well I hope my tortured eyes, are still in your mind
I hope it haunted you for life

I awoke, to a memory
and I felt the earth firm beneath my feet
Oh now it’s history
When I arose I felt the vines release me, oh release me
Couldn’t hear me crying out?
Didn’t you hear me call for help?
Couldn’t you feel what I felt?
Well, I hope my tortured eyes, are still in your mind
Oh I hope it haunted you for life
