מילים לשיר Hope – Anathema

I was not put here by anyone in fear
I came alone as me
Just an idea in a long chain of discovery Surrounded by the same you
And I die in a thrashing curse
Sometimes your tide pulls me out to sea
Sometimes we are kind
More often, I doze
So far up the beach that those who try to reach are burnt
alive in the searing heat of the desert of my dispassion
So far removed, I never hear the water
'Cept once or twice a month when I see a mirror And I refuse to believe in some of the things that are said to be here
Let alone those that are not
I'm trying to change my direction
Ours is pathetic in my own humble estimation I love the planet
The great benign sheBenefactor
Spinning gently on towards the red giant four aeons hence
When all the rose gardens are consumed in the flashShe'll leave alone to you When you look at me
I may seem to be
From your own century
Strange archeology
But when the winds blow
In your reflection
From this direction
You may sense me there
I think I feel you
As the swallows leave
But I will never know
And the children grow I wanted to live forever
The same is you will too
I wanted to live forever
And everybody knew
When I caught you there In tomorrows mirror
I thought felt you
Jump out of my skin
Throwing oil into
My blazing memories
I was standing in
Filling empty footsteps I wanted to live forever
The same as you will too
I wanted to live forever
And everybody knew Of the northern jungle
As the falling rain
Hanging droplets on the leaves
Bombards my brain
I hear you
Across the room
A sea of daffodils spring into bloom
You are the mist
And again
The frost across my window pane She moves her body
And her whispers weave
And the world spins
And tells me that I'll never want to leave As I think of you
I will always be
With generosity
That we both may share
From this dark century
The hope in hearing
That we're not just
Spirits disappearing.
