Lost in skies of powdered gold
Caught in clouds of silver ropes
Showered by the empty hopes
As I tumble down 
Falling fast to the ground

I know I'll wither 
So peel away the bark
Because nothing grows when it is dark
In spite of all my fears
I can see it all so clear
I see it all so clear

Cover your crystal eyes
And feel the tones 
That tremble down your spine
Cover your crystal eyes
And let your colours bleed
And blend with mine

Making waves in pitch black sand
Feel the salt dance on my hands
Raw and charcoal coloured thighs 
Feel so cold and my skin feels so paper-thin

I know I'll wither 
So peel away the bark
Because nothing grows when it is dark
In spite of all my fears
I can see it all so clear
I see it all so clear

Cover your crystal eyes
And feel the tones 
That tremble down your spine
Cover your crystal eyes
And let your colours bleed
And blend with mine

But I'm OK
In see-through skin
I forgive what is within
Because I'm in this house
I'm in this home
All my time

Cover your crystal eyes
And feel the tones
That tremble down your spine
Cover your crystal eyes
And let your colours bleed
And blend with mine
