Lyrics:
Don't speak to me in rhymes, or whispers lost in time.
You are a wind that speaks its name then fades away.
And you are my oldest friend, but I won't be back again,
next time you seek to find, a place to lay aside the burdens of your mind.
These dreams I dream in red and gold they sing the stories of my soul,
This song, this light my sun to rise not hide away.
And you are my oldest friend, but I won't be back again,
next time you seek to find a place to ease the burdens of your...
My, my, my all of these years gone by.
Thoughts that creep in slumber keep the lies that our fears can tell,
and why do we listen like strangers to ourselves?
We're castaways surviving waves where feet won't reach the sand,
'til you come back again, my oldest friend.
This peace that lingers in the truth, this mask I wear that hides the proof.
I won't spend one more breath within this space where you end and I begin.
And you are my oldest friend in this coward's dance we're in,
but I won't be back again next time you seek to find a place to ease your mind.
