SONG STRUCTURE:

riff 0

riff 1
Life is empty, can't remember anytime before,
On a plain lit cold December, see it evermore,

riff 2
Gliding through this life, and another is a child,
and we're doing games, and losing things,
Always playing gigs.

riff 3
Somewhere in the sky, where the moon the stars shine bright,
Where the sun is shining, in the night.
I am in disgrace, yet i see a smiling face,
and i hope you let me, share your place.

I don't live today.

riff 6
I lived in magic solitude,
With cloudy looking mountains,
The lake made out of crystal raindrops.
Run through space, 2000 years ago,
I've seen the giant city of Atlantis,
sinking into an eternal wave of darkness.
Shhh.

Somewhere in the blue distance,
Are those long forgotten trees of gold
Broken lives hidden down in the sand
Darkness everywhere, nothing
Symbols, strange symbols on a cold leaf
Painting torrid colours all sky green.
Candle painted white like the moon,
Faraway children bleed, God save them.
Drifting garish ghosts like shadows.
Save break to catch and kill time.
Echoes one round endless meadow.
Sublime.


riff 7 (fade out)




That's all folks!
