lyrics

Sitting in the middle of a stream, head in a waterfall
I thought that I could get rid of the want to want at all
But I left my will in the stream enchanted
Went back to a life abandoned months ago

Waking in the mdidle of the night to a face that I couldn't see
Damn the feelings, push them out through song or poetry
My waking life was a life enchanted
My dreams were for a girl abandoned months ago

I count off my days one by one, line by line
And use funny marks to record how I spend my time
And when I'm ensnared I think back to goodbyes
That I shared months ago

Standing in the presence of a king with a face that had never moved
Asking for the favor of a glance to have all my veils removed
A voice I heard when I was haunted
Reminded me of a life that I wanted months ago

I count off my days one by one, line by line
And use funny marks to record how I spend my time
And when I'm impaired I think back to goodbyes
That I shared months ago
