What was the cause of this corrosion that's burning everything that grows on the radar and the screen it shows on a blanket of ash landing squarely in the ocean Bringing eyefuls of a blizzard remaining ever-watchful for the wizard who carefully applies his chisel ushered in the new age only with his signal It seems their lives are built on clashing undiscovered moons are waxing it sets a trail of buildings crashing we build for years, spend gleeful seconds smashing

There Is A Place 01:59
lyrics
buy track
There is a place I've found where I can be alone Good to reflect upon changes in what I've been shown Navigate passages and sleepwalk inside memories Listen for messages that well up from deep within me This is all I have How to reach out or to accept the role of a friend? How to speak honestly in words one might understand? Given one chance for to rescue, respond, or relate The future is flashing, you're helpless under the weight This is all you have This is all I have This is all we have All we have
