Birdfoot - Story of a Beggar, Pt. 2

And oh, how it still soothes me
The sweet thought of living with nothing
And oh how I'm changing
Far from everything

And on this quiet mountain
The trees they are ringing like sirens
With wind dancing through em
Gently leading me

And I'm reaching out for the final time
With a message I had found laying right beside me

To live simply for the lord
And to want no more
For his word will not betray me

I am a vessel
Filled with forgotten Mother Nature
Growing change in me

Yes I am honored
That sister death met me
While I'm still changing
Far from everything

I still feel your beauty
The deafening silence I'm seeing
The colors within me
Painting harmonies

And oh the waters flooding
The canyons in me that are forming
A conduit housing
Remnants of the sea

I'm coming home to prepare my mind
For my sister's time
And how clocks turn deep inside me

My Moon, and my Sun arrive
To say their goodbyes
For the hour is finally coming

I am a construct
A balancing of energies
Slowly moving
Toward a harmony

Death is a kind one
A sister of seasons
And it's my winter
Shedding everything

Lord, I offer my hands to command
You to receive what I am
And everything I could've been
Had you not saved me

And Clair
Saw you when it all went black
You held a candle ahead
Braving the dark in my mind
And our time was everything

Now I am becoming the sea
Lifting the floodgates in me
Drowning the life in the streets
Of my heart how it's sputtering

Out, into a deep frightening sleep
Scared of the human in me
And everything he's trying to be
While my sister deaths whispering

You're waking up
You're waking up
