I could bend the genius` course
Could give wisdom to the blunt
But I doubt they would be grateful
One wish, a breeze to blow over
the shelves and piles of souvenirs
If only they would come to see
Knowing ages pass before a tree
Will spoil us with complexity
They`d be worth a hall of memories
But it`s fools I deal with day and night
Fools that only come for short insight
Though all of past hence waits
In sanctity`s sweet embrace.
Hear my song of reverence
To the precious gifts that countenance
To clamber high and dig so deep
And seek what everyone should seek.
It`s him again - the sullen -
With eyes in envy`s mist and woe
Out for refuge in a glimpse of bliss
A short delusion
A frenzy grasp at nothingness
A frenzy grasp at nothingness:
Echoes pound so loud in me
Voices longing for tranquility
A course is set for stormy seas
Leading through the hall of memories
But it`s fools I deal with day and night
Fools that only come for short insight
Though all of past hence waits
In sanctity`s sweet embrace.
I could bend the genius` course
Could give wisdom to the blunt
But I doubt they would be grateful.
