I feel my heart stop
I've just got to catch my breath again
I feel my body rock
And tighten, I'm frightened, I'm falling off the edge

It's as if they're calling me
With the cadence of a flame
In the dark they honor me
Blowing storms that know my name

I feel my heart stop
I've just got to catch my breath again
I feel my body rock
And tighten, I'm frightened, I'm falling off the edge

In hieroglyphic vision
The lion kneeling in the reeds
But what is it I'm hunting
That grows from just his seed

I feel my heart stop
I've just got to catch my breath again
I feel my body rock
And tighten, I'm frightened, I'm falling off the edge

If I pretend I'm melting
Melting in the wax
I'll turn the black to colors
With these magic tricks

And I don't have to ever leave
The journey through the deep
As pale and soft as swans
Building monuments to sheep

Sailing the roundabout
Sailing through the deep
Show me what it's all about
The truth to always keep
