Pass away the hours
Hear the footsteps of the past Walking up the stairs of time Knowing that I'm trapped Cold winds of indifference persuade a movement south Thinking that it's better there The warmer climes that we seek out The poor bird flies up in the air Never getting anywhere How much misery can one soul take? Trying to fly away could have been your first mistake Oh poor bird Up in the air Never getting anywhere Picking petals off a flower, loves me, loves me not Is love another way to count the things you haven't got? We wish the best to all our friends Young and old alike When the dust has settled in the sky You can have anything you like The poor bird flies up in the air, never getting anywhere How much misery can one soul take Trying to fly away could have been your fist mistake Oh poor bird Up in the air Never getting anywhere Oh poor bird |

It's taken all my strength away this time
For today, all the offers I would make I'll withdraw As I stand and I'll watch As they burrow their way into the ground When my words have become just a bark or a bay A meaningless sound They could sing Gloria Oh that I am Gloria I am And onto every face a little rain will fall To trickle through and bathe their empty eyes Are they not yet aware, would they care if they knew That they have the power No they don't move an inch, no they don't raise a hand To seize their hour They could sing Gloria Oh that I am Gloria I am |

Ah, lily
Lily in the shadow Hiding from the moon Lily under glass You’re rising Rising as the sun sets Going to your window Lay your face against the glass And sway from side to side in silence And slowly turning round with nothing but the sound Of your bare feet on the wooden floor And lily All your time you’re wasting Will you ever know When your time is done Now leaning Hands flat to the wall And slowly trace the boundary Of an empty room No word, no warning on the day You left the stage, quit the play You closed your eyes and faded away And lily Come into the moonlight Here, no one will harm you You’re not very strong You’re dying And you don’t even know it You’re drowning on thin air You’re already gone |
