As It Is
Went to the hill, where I've buried all the ashes of yesterday
Where time is still and no burdens wait to be carried away
For no ear can hear and regret my footsteps going astray
There where sorrow fades and in your arms I sway
Right on top, blindfolds, but what I've passed beneath is still seen
Between the tree trunks, down in the dumps wishing for the same old scene
In between the green where my mind's always been, there where sadness runs away and to your arms I lean
Where hope is not a blind man's cane and pain is not a tool of the sane, where we don't walk on smiles and crush ourselves with goodbyes
Where words don't hurt
And thoughts never demean, where
We are not disappointed in what we've seen
Where we can in
Ease, down on our knees
Just accept the days we have left to live in peace
Take it as it is
Went to the river, where I washed away the tears and pawned my deaths
Set free my army of thousand whys and cross my t's and dot my i's
For every year that's gone to fog and every dwindling, failing cheer
Salvation in fear, my steering wheel, for without it, there's nothing to live for
And if there's nothing to live for, what is worth dying for?
Vanish like shadows changing minds in front of dreams and open doors
Whisked away by the light of tallow candles in the night, how to appease all remorse when your fate seems to be ceased?
Clinging to the obscene where the wind's always keen, but where sadness is exiled and to your arms I lean
Where words don't hurt
And thoughts never demean, where
We are not disappointed in what we've seen
Where we can in
Ease, down on our knees
Just accept the days we have left to live in peace
Take it as it is
Where words don't hurt
And thoughts never demean, where
We are not disappointed in what we've seen
Where we can in
Ease, down on our knees
Just accept the days we have left to live in peace
Take it as it is
