lyrics

I'm counting circle waves
Going out from stones
I threw out in the water
(What a child you are!)

Reflection blurs, and then
Becoming whole again
Mutual scorn is sprouting
(Look at yourself now!)

The year, it gets so old
The water gets so cold
Still sitting here to wait
(For better times to come?)

Worried 'bout my health
The days repeat themselves
Pendulum swings back again
(You better duck your head!)

Solid voices asking "Why?"
Fragile answers flying through the sky
Wandr'ing into distance
And back, it's
The decline of time

Night gathers around
While I can hear no sound
Just a distant whisper
(It's wind in the trees!)

Leaning back to see
The stars look down on me
My mind goes in circles
(Just don't stumble now!)

Distant voices call for you
Fragile answers breathing, breaking through
Wandr'ing into distance
And back, it's
The decline of time

Things we don't dare to talk (about)
Roads we don't dare to walk
Deer we don't dare to stalk
Doors we don't dare to chalk

Little words allowed
So everything's about
To fall down to pieces
(But it is alright)

Tired voices keeping still
Fragile answers landing on a hill
Flying is only fun
When you come down again.
