Once a youthful spirit of an enigmatic place Weathered by the storm of time upon this weary face Swam the oceans flowing to a purpose pure and strong Angular perceptions are now back where they belong Ominous reflections now are staring back at me (staring back at me) Shrouded in the mystery of everything i see (everything i see) Reaching back to images that tell me what is real (what is real) Helping me to overcome this heaviness i feel Listen now; to the sound of a sacred treasure Time can't hear; hear the silent mind In our life; we may never know (never know) Set my foot upon the soil of centuries of kings Felt the magic of their land and reveled in such things Stood upon the mountains of the highest mortal thrones Took a breath of ages past from all i've ever known Listen now; to the sound of a sacred treasure Time can't hear; hear the silent mind In our life; we may never know (never know) All we show and struggle to let it all go And just understand Earth and sky will always remind us how It slips through our hands Through my eyes i've seen the brazen sky and grand design Through my ears i've heard the sounds of dissonance and rhyme Stood upon the mountains of the highest mortal throne Took a breath of ages past from all i've ever known Listen now; to the sound of a sacred treasure Time can't hear; hear the silent mind In our life; we may never… know We may never… never know
