"Dead To The World"

All the same take me away
We're dead to the world

The child gave thought to the poet's
words, gave comfort to the fallen
(Heartfelt, lovelorn)
Remaining, yet still uninvited
Those words scented my soul
(Lonely soul, Ocean soul)

It's not the monsters under your bed,
it is the Man next door
That makes you fear, makes you cry,
makes you cry for the child
All the wars are fought among those
lonely men
Unarmed, unscarred

I don't want to die a scarless man
A lonely soul (tell me now what to do)
I studied silence to learn the music
I joined the sinful to regain innocence

Heaven queen, cover me in all that
blue
Little boy such precious joy is dead to
the world
Heaven queen, carry me away from
all pain
All the same take me away, we're
dead to the world

Deep, silent and constant, yet always
changing
-my favorite view of this world
As he died, he will return to die in me
again
Weaving the cloth, giving birth to
Century child
Who gave his life not for the world
but for me
Innocence reborn once more

Heaven queen, carry me away from
all pain
All the same take me away, we're
dead to the world

Heaven queen, cover me in all that
blue
Little boy such precious joy is dead to
the world
Heaven queen, carry me away from
all pain
All the same take me away, we're
dead to the world
