Lyrics
She smiles with the wisdom of the age of the rocks on which she lies
Eyes closed, she breathes deep the morning air fading with evening's light
Hair as the last embers of the bonfire of my broken heart
Deepest red glowing, not fading into the night
She rides with the stars at her back and the moon by her side
Her steed stretches wings of infinite night dusted with sprinklings of distant stars
She fears not the light of day, nor the darkest life
Though touched is her perfect skin by perfect scars
Soul so bright it burns, were I to reach to touch that soft smooth skin
With rough hands torn and weary
rough hands torn and weary
What fate lies for those who try,
Those who lie, those who promise
Those seen by her so clearly
Those seen by her so clearly
She haunts my dreams, this figure so distant and close and warm
I fear to face her truths to know her smile
I fear her wisdom afraid more to never know or ask
Will she stay by my side, for just this short while
Can she find rest?
Can I disturb her?
What fate lies for those who try?
Who lie?
Soul so bright it burns, were I to reach to touch that soft smooth skin
With rough hands torn and weary
Rough hands torn and weary
What fate lies for those who try,
Those who lie, those who promise
Those seen by her so clearly
Those seen by her so clearly
"Fear not the scars," says she, "for they set your spirit free"
Memories etched in stone, with trembling hand I reach past my shadow and fears
Will my story crumble scattered amongst the dusty maze of time and memory
Or disappear in the sand with my tears
