These feet have carried me as far as I will go Across the field to where the wind had ceased to blow That day, when sorrow filled the air and all the blackbirds scattered everywhere And you had gone as far as you would go In my reflection, you are staring back at me My eyes are mirrors of the dreams you used to see But now I'm fumbling in the dark, where all the memories are far apart And there I lost the forest for the trees In the gloaming of the day The words are darkening away Take another look There's no more pages in this book The epilogue was written in the dirt The story's at an end It's time to put away my pen And join the you by the earth There was a tremble in the marrow of my bones Distorted and contorted like a worn out megaphone And through the bellow and the bluster, I was shaking, I was flustered With a body full of star-crossed chromosomes And through the clatter there emerged a single voice A familiar sound I hadn't heard since I was just a boy And all at once my fears were lifted as the echoes slowly drifted To the center of the amplifying void And I followed like a child, so carefree and so wild [Chorus] Well there's music everywhere The voices carry through the air But I'm not listening
