lyrics

Blind on the crystal sea
Be silent and see the moorings free
In the heat of June
Lean sceners and chicks at half past noon
The morning comes
Last morning to come for all and one
All and two
Lies idle and calls him back to you

Oh, don't think all eyes see
Oh, first to live and last to be

Drop everything and go
Hours pass and soon we might not know
Where to cross again
Black river to hem the spirits in
By the mountain's will
And as the forest moves in for the kill,
The birds won't call
Gold-plated and perched upon the wall

Ah, don't think all eyes see
Oh, first to live and last to be

Some dream of changing time
Live by the line and die beneath the blinds
And the snow outside
Falls even so no one steps aside
Where the prophets go,
All the boys and girls shuffle in the snow
That fell all day
Sky's burning to melt the day away

Oh, don't think all eyes see
Oh, first to live and last to be
