Plains Of Dawn
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(I'm here now, by your side)
Sheltered from the cold, a soldier guards a boy
Clocks are cutting as times pass by their pain
Bringing release through the book on his knees
(Keep trying, keep trying, keep dying inside)
Hush now little child, it's time to say goodnight
Find rest in my lullaby this night
I'll still be here when the nightmists draw near
(Blind figures controlling his life)
(Keep falling, keep falling, keep falling down now)
Have faith my son
Reach for my hand and I'll walk with you till the Sun goes down
Follow me now, we will meet again in your land
(Have faith my son)
Now I'll lead you home
Opening stillness, reaching through illness
(They walk in nightmist)
Now, we meet again. I'm so close to you now
(Again we laugh)
Where shallow waters reach
For unknown mystic shores
They gaze at the horizon and smile
Behold my son
Reach for the vision that fills your mind just let go and run
Follow the path that was meant for you long ago
(Behold my son)
And cross the plains of dawn
Wordless questions, tearful confessions
They meet at last now, when it is time to go separate ways
Fading pages
(They have touched through ages.)
Remember me my son, it's time to say goodbye
I'll free you from your prison, now go!
You're free now, the wave meets the shore!
(Keep running, keep running, keep running home kid)
(Winning a war made him lose evermore)
Farewell my son
The tubes that were straining you to a death within life are gone
Wait for us, I and your mother will cherish you my son
I cry as I'm watching you run across plains of dawn
And so through that evening
A soldier is leaving
His son once again and
A war has been lost
Forlorn he is reeling
Unmendably kneeling
But fate leaves no choice now
He must close the book!
