歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] The velvet green is overgrown The seeds of sorrow I have sown Rose thorns bite into my skin Where does the labyrinth begin? Dew is crusting on the leaf Mirroring my silent grief I prune the hedge with heavy shears To hide the traces of my tears [Pre-Chorus] You watch the sky, I watch the dirt Two worlds that collide and hurt The sextant measures out the sea While gravity holds onto me I tuck a letter in the clay To keep the winter winds at bay [Chorus] Oh, the starflowers fall on the gate We cannot negotiate with fate The sundial is cracked in the frost Everything we found is lost Wait for the lantern's glow Before the morning says you go Just let the harpsichord play low Before the morning says you go [Post-Chorus] Stay in the maze Lost in the haze Stay in the maze [Verse] Half-written lines in terracotta pots Tied in clumsy gardener's knots The iron hinges bleed with rust Our promises are turning into dust I see the carriage from the hill While all the garden stands so still The brass is muffled in the dark Leaving a cold and lonely mark [Pre-Chorus] You seek the moon, I seek the root We harvest such a bitter fruit The stars are maps for you to find But I am the one you leave behind I hide my heart beneath the stone To face the garden all alone [Chorus] Oh, the starflowers fall on the gate We cannot negotiate with fate The sundial is cracked in the frost Everything we found is lost Wait for the lantern's glow Before the morning says you go Just let the harpsichord play low Before the morning says you go [Bridge] Sail past the edge of the world With every white canvas unfurled While I am bound to the ground Where only the shadows are found The viola plays a low refrain Washing the garden in pain One last breath in the cold Before the story is told [Breakdown] No more light Only night Hold me tight [Chorus] Oh, the starflowers fall on the gate We cannot negotiate with fate The sundial is cracked in the frost Everything we found is lost Wait for the lantern's glow Before the morning says you go Just let the harpsichord play low Before the morning says you go [Verse] I'll plant a flower for every mile And keep the memory of your smile The maze will grow tall and deep The secrets that the shadows keep Go find your stars across the blue I’ll stay and tend the earth for you My quiet resolve is my grace Until I see your distant face [Outro]
