It's the folly of my walls

To build an ivory tower and be free, be free

Has left me lost and alone

To walk the streets of ash

Beneath falling amber and in fire, in fire

With the wind, kindle

So all my dreams collapse

I lay beneath the stars

They're so lovely and so far

From what I know

And in the dark

So gently in the night

I hear hello

I'm where the earth can meet the sky

The place at the horizon where I can be free, be free

This comfort I cannot deny

And now the thing that I breathe in

Is like sugar to the soul, so sweet, so sweet

I'm finally without culpability

And I can feel it in my heart, in my bones

I lay beneath the stars

They're so lovely and so far

From what I know

And in the dark

So gently in the night

I hear hello

I lay beneath the stars

They're so lovely and so far

From what I know

And in the dark

So gently in the night

I hear hello
