Lyrics for Song: Dead To The World
Lyrics for Album: Lokikirja [2010]
All the same take me away
We're dead to the world
The child gave thought to the poet's words, gave comfort to the fallen
(Heartfelt, lovelorn)
Remaining, yet still uninvited
Those words scented my soul
(Lonely soul, Ocean soul)
It's not the monsters under your bed, it is the Man next door
That makes you fear, makes you cry, makes you cry for the child
All the wars are fought among those lonely men
Unarmed, unscarred
I don't want to die a scarless man
A lonely soul (tell me now what to do)
I studied silence to learn the music
I joined the sinful to regain innocence
Heaven queen, cover me in all that blue
Little boy such precious joy is dead to the world
Heaven queen, carry me away from all pain
All the same take me away, we're dead to the world
Deep, silent and constant, yet always changing
-my favourite view of this world
As he died, he will return to die in me again
Weaving the cloth, giving birth to Century child
Who gave his life not for the world but for me
Innocence reborn once more
Heaven queen, carry me away from all pain
All the same take me away, we're dead to the world
Heaven queen, cover me in all that blue
Little boy such precious joy is dead to the world
Heaven queen, carry me away from all pain
All the same take me away, we're dead to the world
