fragile21

mist circles the waterfall
but the river is running dry
only drops are falling over
as if it were tears from my eyes
i used to bathe in the pool below
and swim in so many mysteries
now i'm laying on jagged rocks
waiting for the flood to come back to me...

if i fell asleep
then this could all be a dream

a ghost dances beneath
holding her arms open for me
as she sets fire to everything
turning it all to ash and desert
and leaving me haunted by memories
of a place that was once beautiful
when all that remains is now ruined
and i'm praying for rain to bring back to life...

if i could awake
then i would leave this all behind

cry for me sky
