No Swan Song

Black brushstrokes travel east Paint swans a darkened stream She glides along the shore The queen of twilight has been seen Currents on the cold Tuoni swallowing Submerged in crystal water Dress that is so very fitting Gentle breezes often uproot me Just a soft fire in the ground, you'll see Snow falls like little stars dangling from the sky Dreams of escape shining in her green jade eye She tried To fly High High Black brushstrokes travel east Paint swans a darkened stream She glides along the shore The queen of twilight has been seen Currents on the cold Tuoni swallowing Submerged in crystal water Dress that is so very fitting Take me to see Tuonela Tuonela Take me to sea Tuonela Tuonela So ready, so ready
