as you fall to earth
you must bruise your knees
your hands are burnt
as i watch you plead
may i hold you close?
and breathe in your life
but i don't suppose
i can make you fly
do you see the world all around us
saprolite in abundance
can't you feel that we've grown so old?
but do not despair my love
our solace comes from above
we will rise again and cry no more
they've clipped this angel's wings
but despite her pain she sings
they have drained her smile
but they can't touch her soul
her master watched on
two thousand years since his son
will they ever learn?
some will have to burn...
do you see the world all around us
saprolite in abundance
can't you feel that we've grown so old?
but do not despair my love
our solace comes from above
we will rise again and cry no more
no more!
no more!
my love my love
i know you yearn
no more!
no more!
my love my love
the years burn
do you see the world all around us
saprolite in abundance
