In these ruins overgrown
I've been walking on my own
In these woods rising from debris
Then I see the head of a lizard made of stone
And here I am
The wizard who gave it form
Now these green eyes of mine shine on it
Sort it out
Shaped by hands of time
Wearing a crown of sharp twigs
Moss and slumber
Eye-lids heavy like my heart
AAh
A creature born of earth and rain
Huhh
(Huhh)
With eye-lids heavy like the heart that bears the pain
It turned to me and said “I felt you from miles away
I taste the air with my tongue for the dead or dying prey. ”
“So tell me why you wander the edge of life
my magical child? ”
Now these fern eyes of mine pale like the water
And as day fades I unfold
Like a wild river carving its bed
I have torn at my soul
To have a place in the world
Eye-lids heavy like my heart
AAh
A creature born of earth and rain
Huhh
Huhh
