The scent of the wind it is filled with our sins And the ashes of promises never fulfilled Before the night I saw the setting Sun One lullaby for for all we should have done As the earth went dry my heart was filled with shame Today a home and tomorrow a grave Well, now I'm wiser, now I understand I'm the drought, I am the barren land I'm the flooding and the rising tide I'm the heat, the wind, the fire and ice I dreamt of trees and I dreamt of fur I felt my shape begin to fade and blur Climbed up branches read the bark like words What have I ever given up in return? The sky was gone when at last I woke Daylight trapped behind a deadly cloak The silence speaks like a muted scream The pain of nothing and no air to breathe
