She lay upon a cloud in the morning light
Dreaming of a different place and time
A seed born out in the land
And in the path she had a plan
That a bird she would become
Whether or not the gods were watching
She'd strike a match
As the shadows and light
Become all of the motion surrounding her
You follow your tracks
I'll follow mine
Like a painter in the canvas
Trapped within colours
Seeking the end to come
So that they can rest their eyes
See the only place that you can hide
Is within forgotten trails out of sight
This is where you know life will be kind
This is where you can sit and begin to listen
And feel the life that you've always known
She lay upon a cloud in the morning light
Dreaming of a different place and time
And in that path a bird she would become
She'd strike a match
Whether or not the gods were watching
She lay upon a cloud in the morning light
Dreaming of a different place and time
A seed born out in the land
And in the path she had a plan
That a bird she would become
Whether or not the gods were watching
She'd strike a match
As the shadows and light
Become all of the motion surrounding her
You follow your tracks
I'll follow mine
Like a painter in the canvas
Trapped within colours
Seeking the end to come
So that they can rest their eyes
See the only place that you can hide
Is within forgotten trails out of sight
This is where you know life will be kind
This is where you can sit and begin to listen
And feel the life that you've always known
She lay upon a cloud in the morning light
Dreaming of a different place and time
And in that path a bird she would become
She'd strike a match
Whether or not the gods were watching
