Far across the endless sky

Is a soul with whom my diffidence lies

Pining a lost sense of reality

The brittle star is soothing me

You, you say you want to be free

Free from the yearning inside

To keep it alive I'll treasure this tragedy

So collapse and crumble

This is not your destruction

This is your birth

Walking through this long valley

I reach out to the sun

It burns my fingertips

Down to my palms so rough

You hold out an amethyst

And I feel the overwhelming love

You, you say you want to be free

Free from the yearning inside

To keep it alive I'll treasure this tragedy

So collapse and crumble

This is not your destruction

This is your birth

Show me something real

Something I can feel

You, you say you want to be free

Free from the yearning inside

To keep it alive I'll treasure this tragedy

So collapse and crumble

This is not your destruction

This is your birth
