Elf Power

Words are winding, towers of light were made for me.
Walking through them endlessly, I have seen you
Hiding in the dark; staring at the stars;
Window to Mars.
I'm not coming home today,
Icy hands will melt away.
We were always coming out of
The arms of love

Well, I walked along and I felt like pretending
The earth stopped moving and nothing was ending,
I saw the beggar boys in different places,
They wore dirty rags and filthy faces

I told them 'hello' and they came and they followed,
I gave them my bread and they chewed and the swallowed,
And they picked me up and took my hand
And I never felt like a better man

Well, love was just a dream,
You know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street

Well, we talked all night and I felt very tired
So I laid down and I looked at the fire
And I thought about nothing at all
And then in the morning I was up at dawn

We talked to the people who wanted to hide us
Nothing they said then could ever divide us
And I pulled out everything I know
And I never ever went back home

Well, love was just a dream,
You know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street

Take me

I was you (you were me)
He was she (she was he)
They were us (we were they)
It was real (we were free)
I was God (God is cool)
God is you (God is me)
I was one (we were two)
They were three (three is three)
I was me (you were you)
Love was us (we were love)
I was gone (you were there)
You were here (I was everywhere)
I was this (this is me)
I was young (you were old)
I was hot (you were cold)
I was all (You were everything)

Love was just a dream,
You know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street

Yeah, love was just a dream,
You know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street

When all the things have come out
In the morning sun
Woke up and come to life
Under the northern sky

Then we will come to be wrapped
In a web of green
Caught in the silent sea
Where you were born with me

Last night I saw you crawl down
From the crumbling wall
We laughed and rank all night
Under the northern sky

Trembling like a fly, all tangled in a web unseen
Feeling like I'm always falling backwards in the dream
Around me all the holy men were kneeling on the floor
Asking for forgiveness, they would wait forever more

A cool wind blows on by
The spider and the fly

In the dying light I saw a child there so fair
Bending through the shadows as she moved up through the air
I could hear her voice as it came calling through the dark
Though I never found her, I have held her in my heart

A cool wind blows on by
The spider and the fly

I could always feel you here with me
Forming all the words I ever speak
Seeing everything that will ever be, through me

Over all the years now I have always heard this song
It sings me off to sleep and then it wakes me in the dawn
It was such a mystery I pondered all the time
One day without warning it came forming in my mind

A cool wind blows on by
The spider and the fly

Ghostly eyes so old, I can hardly see you;
Coming underground, digging through to feel you.
The echoes in the night tell me not to follow,
[Licking all the world(?)] is born again tomorrow.
The whole world is like a giant burning flame,
It fries you in your mind, and leaves you trying
To find the way home.
I have seen you there, in the new mythology,
Walking down the road, blending with the scenery.
The treasure's all the world, falling from your fingers,
Riding in the dark, the feeling always lingers.
The whole world is like a giant burning flame,
It fries you in your mind, and leaves you trying
To find the way home.
Sometimes you can't escape,
From the crushing weight, drags you on down to the bottom.
The faces and the names all just go away,
Buried down deep and forgotten.
Outside on the road, I heard the rain falling.
All the big black birds, they all came calling.
Early in the morning, [?] in the light.
Rolling through the days, flying through the night.
The whole world is like a giant burning flame,
It fries you in your mind, and leaves you trying
To find the the way home

I've waited here so long,
Counting through the hours.
I heard a strange sad song,
Coming from the towers.

I turned my head to follow,
The voices tumbling downward.
Worn away and hollow.
A window in the cloud there.

We lay down low,
Our world divides.
One part won't wake.
One comes alive.

I saw the demon's daughter,
I tried to make her smile.
We waded in the water.
She shivered like a child.

We swam out to the island.
I knew that I was dreaming.
The world below was silent.
The world above was screaming.

We lay down low,
Our world divides.
One part won't wake.
One comes alive.

Oh, the I heard the callin' out from below.
She took me by the hand and she never let go.
I could not feel the cold wind, I could not feel the thorns.
I could not tear my eyes from the light that drew me on.

The horse will ride the rider.
The slave has rule the master.
The web will trap the spider.
The father births the bastard.
The buildings are all falling.
The people don't remember.
The oceans are dissolving.
The forests burned to embers.

We lay down low,
Our world divides.
One part won't wake.
One comes alive.

We lay down low,
Our world divides.
One part won't wake.
One comes alive

Falling around in a fog of a mountain
It took me away
And now ill never go back
Always believed you
But never could see you
You seemed to disappear when
Everything went black
You turn around one minute
And they've taken everything you have

Look at the night the skies the seas
The trees the cracks running up the wall
Think of the start the end the screams
The dreams the thing underneath it all

Day, it is ending no calling no sending its harder to remember just who you are
Waiting for someone to come follow you into the dark

Oh, little one are you lost on the run?
When the rain starts falling, I can't hear you calling
I saw you there, we were both unaware
Of the plots that were thickening, venomous and sickening

Coming down the spiral stairs
With the end of the world in you eyes
No one never could follow you there
The corridors crumble behind

I walked alone into places unknown
Where the wild creatures lay with the children all day
Then I could see, rising up from beneath
The blue flower was growing from under the ocean

Then the thunder pulled me away
And the lightning ripped through the sky
All around me, the world was so strange
Like a book I always wanted to write

In the unseen hand will pick me up
And take me far from home
Lead me through the dream, surround,
And bury me I'll lay there all alone
All alone

I felt the waves
Coming up from the graves
All the people who knew me
Were all moving through me

I trembled and shook
As I read from the book
Of that rolling, black water
That end demon's daughter

Coming down the spiral stairs
With the end of the world in you eyes
No one never could follow you there
The corridors crumble behind

I laid there in the morning with the sunlight in my eyes
I saw you in the water as you slowly floated by
Somewhere down the river, somewhere on the sea
The sun came down, the moon was round and shining over me

The rain poured around us, and the fog had filled the air
I faded out till finally I wasn't even there
I was always waiting, never going home
I was gone so far away form everything I'd known

I went out on the pathway, I went on down the road
Looked out every window, climbed every hole
Rose up through the water, crawled up on the sore
Said goodbye this one last time and walked out through the door

When I finally came back home I knew the end was near
I rose at dawn, my mind was on, reversing through the years
Somewhere down the river, somewhere on the sea
The sun came down, the moon was round and shining over me

I lay my eyes upon it, the dark world rising up at night.
I want enough to want it, I try to live in another life.
I've tried to look and see what everyone else sees,
I saw no face of God there staring back at me.
Something pulls me softly through the void,
The way back home will never be destroyed.
What lays there undiscovered, taking form in another shape?
From one thing to another, leaving all 'till the body breaks.
I tried to find the place where no one's ever been,
I always found the flag there waving in the wind.
All the time will slowly tick away,
I feel you coming closer everyday.
Spreading out like vines that grow across the cold concrete,
And then they spill on down the hill and crawl back underneath;
Like fingers reaching through the land to meet back at the sea:
And I will walk beside them endlessly.
Just like an empty bottle, a grey shape hanging off to the side.
Don't hide away tomorrow, come back, return to life.
I tried to look and see what everyone else sees.
I saw no face of God there staring back at me.
Something pulls me softly through the void,
The way back home will never be destroyed

Down by the shoreline, down by the sea
Rolling black water, singing me to sleep
Keeps rushing forward, keeps rushing by
Rolling black water keep me inside

Out of the warm night, into the trees
Rolling black water, sing me to sleep
Send me a raincloud, tell me goodbye
Rolling black water, keep me alive

Crumbling worlds hung over me,
Waiting along there underneath.
Nobody knocks upon the door,
Don't even know what we're waiting for.
Forever pulled from the back of beyond;
I'm just another come and gone,
Follow the sunlight from the sky,
Swallowed it all up in the life.
And then the world it seems to quiver and to quake,
We twist and turn away but never will escape.
Hide in the trees, the name I know;
Watch as the sky begins to glow.
Moving across the dusty earth,
Waiting for something to occur.
And then I hold it up, it's there for all to see.
All eyes come open, they're returning from the dream.
And then the dark descends, dripping from the sky.
As it comes pouring in blackness fills my eyes.
Just when the world was becoming clear,
Everything slowly disappeared.
Everyone wondered what was said,
Lying awake there in their beds.
And then the world it seems quiver and to quake,
We twist and turn away but never will escape.
And then the dark descends, dripping from the sky.
As it comes pouring in blackness fills my eyes

Coming all around us in the blue light of the morning
The whole entire world was in your eyes
Felt so powerless and simple, the rain was on the window
Sliding down and dripping all inside

So I walked down by the water, saw the pulsing mass was shining
Listened to the things out in the night
Threw my dollars on the fire, crawled out through the wire
Hoping we'd eventually collide

Hold my head to the skin I said, when my heart wasn't always there
As you turn down the light in the long black night, peel back the moon, beware!

Through the darkness I kept moving, down the streets and through the alleys
Hiding in the doorways from the cold
And everything was pretty, stealing through the city
Always somewhere better left to go

So I climbed up on the mountain and the clouds were all around me
I stumbled on, I could not see the light
Always running from the slaughter, trembling through the water
Trying to find away back down inside

Hold my head to the skin I said, when my heart wasn't always there
as you turn down the light in the long black night, peel back the moon, beware!

In the shadows I was walking, I was hidden from the morning
Everything just seemed to fade away
I was living in a movie, you never even knew me
The people looked right through the city

Late at night I'm beginning to see
What the world has been hiding from me.
Laying out all the stones and the sand,
Hold 'em up in the palm of my hand.
Little pieces of something that was,
It fell apart and it turned into dust.
Worn away by the passing of time,
It's the one thing you cannot defy.
Paralyzed, I lie their in the dark;
All the time I wonder where you are.
New illusions appear every day,
It's getting harder to wish them away.
They're coming through a hole in the sky,
I don't know where you light up my mind.
All in all you wore me like the rain;
Paranoia conquers everything.
Up above theirs a light in the air,
In my mind I will follow you there.
Calling out to the world down below,
If they'll hear my I never will know.
Paralyzed, I lie their in the dark;
All the time I wonder where you are.
Coming home through the dark,
Fading out, fell apart;
Rising up, through the skin,
Can't escape, never will

The sky's turning gray, here comes the rain;
Lightning comes reaching through my windowpane.
Silver bright light pulls through the sky,
Pulls open the world 'till it lays there open wide.
And all the little things go crawling back inside.
Thoughts, they return, bend all around.
They show me the way to that place there on the ground.
Forget all I've seen, and I'll lay without a sound.
A whole world is waving goodbye;
A new lord takes over tonight.
All the places I have seen, all the things I've said,
Coming through my mind again, brings a sense of dread.
A dark world at night, lay deep and quiet
Comes wide awake in the middle of the day.
Hey, can you hear voices so clear?
Cutting like a blade, through the empty air of night;
Drifting into space, moving up into the sky.
A whole world is waving goodbye;
A new lord takes over tonight.
One more day I could not wait, of nothing more to see,
Wandering through the world again, you could not ever meet.
Over and over we drive down the road,
Freeing from the things that would pull us beneath.

It's always getting clearer
It's coming through to me
Can you hear it in your ear
When you are fast asleep?

They're always sending letters
They wait for you at home
It's hard to drown it out
This empty, endless drone

And it's crumbling down
And it's rotting away
And you're wanting to leave
But you'll never escape

They call when you are sleeping
They shake your hand downtown
Seems like everywhere you go
They follow you around

You hear it when you're driving
You see it on the wall
Everytime you read it there
You feel nothing at all

And was it just a lie?
And was this all a dream?
Well, we always will wonder
But never believe

When they come from every angle
You can close your eyes
Turn your head
You don't have to reply

Come look into the water
Go stare into the sun
Don't let it haunt the thing
That you will soon become

And it's crumbling down
And it's rotting away
And you're wanting to leave
But you'll never escape

And was it just a lie?
And was this all a dream?
Well, we always will wonder
But never believed it could be

Well I rode far away, on the dark black wave,
Nothing was the same when I woke up.
And I wrote out these words, as my circled on;
Sitting in my bright little corner.
Midnight crawls out, one more time.
I'm hiding out as the shadows climb.
Early in the morning I listen to the sounds
Of people walking up and down the street.
I hear a voice that sounds just like a girl I used to know.
She rode a horse and lived in a hotel room.
Midnight crawls out, one more time.
I'm hiding out as the church bells chime.
Come to the window and tap on the screen,
I'll climb out and walk in the rain.
The shallow waters that lap at our feet
Rise up a little every day.
And then late in the night, as I'm drifting off to sleep,
I picture you there on the big screen.
You were riding on a train, through the desert at night,
Leaning on your daddy's shoulder.
Midnight crawls out, one more time.
I'm hiding out as the shadows climb.

As I lay thinking of the things that I had seen,
Scattered across my weary mind.
The sun bursts through there in the corner of the sky,
The world lit up before my eyes.
Memories come crawling out once hidden deep inside,
They make me laugh, they make me tremble with desire;
They fill my head with dust, they fill my heart with lust.
You never know what you may find.
Oh, no, don't go.
Oh, no, don't go

The night is over, the day is come;
You're growing older, no longer young.
You're never sleeping, you're wide awake,
You're getting older, plans you make.
Oh no, I never wanted to find out,
Oh I wish you hadn't fried out.
You've fallen under the dark waves,
You're in the work yard with all the slaves.
No one miss you when you're gone,
Out there lying the black [?]
I watched the fiend as he was forming,
Ten years of ugly little warnings.
And when you lay down, late in the night,
You don't think about it, you don't wonder why.
The days are long, and you cannot move.
You only see what you want to see.
You are never coming back,
Forever falling through the cracks.
I hope to see you once again,
We're all moving towards the end.
Oh no, I never wanted to find out,
Oh I wish you hadn't fried out.
And when you lay down, late in the night,
You don't think about it, you don't wonder why.
The days are long, and you cannot leave.
You only see what you want to see

Early in the morning
Waiting for the sun
I'd thought I'd never see you
Thought you'd never come
I pictured you inside me
Coming through the blood
I wished that I can reach you
Bring you up above
And all along, I wondered
If you had gone away
I thought of all the living things
Forming every day
Forming in the water
Forming on the land
I could see their faces
In the sand

Empty pictures
Take my time.
I see them always,
In my mind.

You can't stop them:
They refuse to leave.
I feel them follow
In a waking dream.

Every day, you stare into the bottom of the hole
Your thoughts have gone, and you have no control.

Empty pictures
Fill your screen.
I do not need them;
I don't believe.

Why are you waiting?
Is there something there?
You're still not moving ?
Do you care?

Every day, you stare into the bottom of the hole
Your thoughts have gone, and you have no control.

They can show you pictures of the world that looks so nice
But you can walk out of your door and see with your own eyes.
You can watch the show about the man you wanna be;
Does the things you want to do, and leads you to believe?

It's better to be watching him,
Than standing on your feet.

Empty pictures
It's all the same.
Every evening,
Every day.

You can't stop them
They refuse to leave.
I never could see what
There was to see?

Every day, you stare into the bottom of the hole
Your thoughts have gone and you have no control.

No control?
No control?
No control?
No control

i was alive
trying to survive
living a life of simple things
having a dream
feeling obscene
wanting to be the one you need

can hear no any bells
can hear no screams
can't seem to turn off the machines

swallowed in smoke
wanting to choke
wondering where the end will be
walking alone
talking to walls
hearing the things they say to me

can hear no any bells
can hear no screams
can't seem to turn off the machines

drawing flies
in the street
long gone
were you ever there?
i see the pictures everywhere

oh i can be found
moving around
turning in circles endlessly
floating in air
nobody cares
they can't reach inside of me

can hear no any bells
can hear no screams
can't seem to turn off the machines

You will know me walking slowly
Through the spaces underneath
Pull me under, rolling thunder
Echoes all up and down the street

Come lie down with me and sing my song
Close your eyes and soon we will be gone

Midnight water, lovely daughter
This was just where I wanted to be
Windows open, nothing spoken
Just the sound of the rain on the sea

Come lie down with me and sing my song
Close your eyes and soon we will be gone

In the dream I was older
And I sat on the bench in the park
You came up from the ground
And you followed me into the dark

Come lie down with me and sing my song
Close your eyes and soon we will be gone

Bring the light in through to me, when I'm feeling cold
You're just hiding in between, climb in through the hole

Things that crawl within your mind, echo always deep inside
Lost somewhere you'll never find
This was what we said, come back to the web

Fold your heart into the clay, bury all you were
All the things you've wished away, lie beneath the dirt

Things that drawl within your mind, echo always deep inside
Lost somewhere you'll never find
This was what we said, come back to the web

Put your mind inside of me, let me feel your love
Now the sky is all you see, calling from above

Midnight brings you waves in through, across the world to me
I am still here thinking about what you came to be
I can see your face there in the moonlight on the wall
The shadows bend the light into a little golden ball

One by one the shapes become an old familiar scene
I watch them flicker slowly as I'm falling off to sleep

I can almost hear the words come rising from your tongue
I can almost hear you laughing when the morning comes
And sometimes when I wake up in the middle of the night
I can see the angels come in, falling from your eyes

One by one the shapes become an old familiar scene
I watch them flicker slowly as I'm falling off to sleep

I can see you far away off in another time
Still ride on, the world is gone and somehow you survived
You sit there by the window looking out into the rain
Everyone was waiting but you never, ever came

I run down the street, with all the wandering things
Everyone can see, the world is coming free
The monumental minds will dangle on a wire
The great enormous wall, eventually will fall

And all the world is waiting
To lay beneath the water
To use up from the ruins
And climb up from the bottom

I thought I heard you say the end is on the way
I thought I heard you sing a million lovely things
I thought I heard you cry, a howling through the night
An everlasting scream, to echo through your dreams

And all the world is waiting
To lay beneath the water
To rise up from the ruins
And climb up from the bottom

It was always growing there, a dim light in my eyes
Coming on to lead me through the night
All at once then slowly every sound you've ever known
Is hummed by all the world in a drone

Wake me up in the cold grey morning,
Wrap me up in a web of light.
We have all grown tired of waiting.
Hide away, come with me,
Words of love bursting free.
In the night we will fade;
Nothing will remain.
See the boats out there in the harbor,
See the smoke rising to the sky.
Paper dolls burning in the fire,
Burn away all of them inside.
Things will come, things will go,
Some will die in the row.
Flames will reach to the sky,
Bur cars keep rolling by.
Fell asleep like a tired army,
I am lost in the world tonight

Somewhere down along the way, I spilled out into the day
I made my way here slowly, with worlds of white below me

I went out on across the stream, dripping sounds had filled the trees
And no more words were spoken, the circle was unbroken

I heard the voices through the wall, I touched the things that no one saw
And deep inside you heard me, this was my 23rd dream
