Song Of Distance

Hear me all you friends and strangers
Hear me close and ear me right
Hear me all you band of angels
In the glory of the light

Hear me now my broken father
You're gone out of sight
Hear me all you winter sailors
Sailing through the endless night

This is goodbye
Everything must die
But it all seems so easy
In that summer sky

There's nothing here that meets me
Yellow moon take your flight
Burning stars so far above me
Hide your feeble fire

And all I can find is distance
And stare in that madman's eyes
So I sink like every shipwreck
Though every river's dry

This is goodbye
Everything must die
But it all seems so easy
In that summer sky

She hasted (?) my thirst and hunger
Sheltered my rocket size
Gave me her heart to master
She never told me why
Gave her purest morning
Her mirror shun so bright
I never heard her calling
Left everything behind

This is goodbye
Everything must die
But it all seems so easy
In that summer sky
