Alluvium

We came to see the sun rise up
We came to see the fire go out
Awake, wake
How could you do everything the world is
Asking you to do?

We came to see the mountain range, oh
To see the seasons starting to change
Arise, rise
How could I be everything the world is
Asking me to be?
A wave of ecstasy

It's all around you
A weight I cannot feel, I cannot move
And it slows under the floor like alluvium
That's out for someone, something new

You ought to push the wolves aside
The servant with the wandering eye
Away, way
Out of the scene everything has been
Is asking you to see

The rolling leaves unfold
The forest turns to gold
With flowing arms stretched out to hold
With all the wanderers and worriers before us

It's all around you
A weight I cannot feel, I cannot move
And it slows under the floor like alluvium
That's out for someone, something new
