lyrics

There's a rope that ties my heart to some vague memory,
some distant decaying fortress overgrown with weeds.
We used to be beautiful, so beautiful.

So the days are gray as any now and ever were,
the crumbling ruin a monument of our sepulcher.
Two distant moons, two vacant worlds.

CHORUS:
Reconnect the pieces, a fractured life remade.
Reconstruct the bridges to souls you turned away.

Now I keep you locked in frozen corners of my mind.
You're drifting ever farther backwards into time.
We are so distant, so distant.

CHORUS:
Reconnect the pieces, a fractured life remade.
Reconstruct the bridges to souls you turned away.
Trapped inside your memory,
you only see what you want to see.
Blinded by the pain you caused them,
let them be now, set them free now.

Long ago, a boy and his friend
climbed down into a canyon on the slippery stone.
The sand was paper and the footsteps were pens,
the trees melted into bears and lions.
A vulture soared in another world,
and dropped a pebble onto a dry creek bed.

The boy picked up the stone and his words
brought twisted sheets of green, green rain.
The canyon drank the lightning in his eyes,
conductor of the skies.

of the skies.

CHORUS
