I should have known better
To see what I could see
My black shroud
Holding down my feelings
A pillar for my enemies
I should have wrote a letter
And grieve what I happen to grieve
My black shroud
I never trust my feelings
I waited for the remedy
When I was three
three maybe four
She left us at that video store
Be my rest
be my fantasy
Be my rest
be my fantasy
I'm light as a feather
I'm bright as the Oregon breeze
My black shroud
Frightened by my feelings
I only wanna be a relief
No
I'm not a go-getter
The demon had a spell on me
My black shroud
Captain of my feelings
The only thing I wanna believe
When I was three
and free to explore
I saw her face on the back of the door
Be my rest
be my fantasy
Be my rest
be my fantasy
I should have known better
Nothing can be changed
The past is still the past
The bridge to nowhere
I should have wrote a letter
Explaining what I feel
that empty feeling
Don't back down
concentrate on seeing
The breakers in the bar
the neighbor's greeting
My brother had a daughter
The beauty that she brings
illumination
Don't back down
there is nothing left
The breakers in the bar
no reason to live
I'm a fool in the fetter
Rose of Aaron's beard
where you can reach me
Don't back down: nothing can be changed
Cantilever bridge
the drunken sailor
My brother had a daughter
The beauty that she brings
illumination
illumination
