from the crowds I hide and look on life

and see oneself is to see the whole world

Its trouble too great for laughter or tears

laughter or tears doesn't change what we see

what we believe today tomorrow we forget

Tomorrow we forget lest happy endings are lost

Endings are lost in new beginnings

The clouds drip and the earth shelters
the earth shelters the lonely from the crowds
from the crowds I hide and look on life
look on life and see oneself
and see oneself is to see the whole world
the whole world with its trouble too
Its trouble too great for laughter or tears
laughter or tears doesn't change what we see
what we see is what we believe
what we believe today tomorrow we forget
Tomorrow we forget lest happy endings are lost
Endings are lost in new beginnings

he knocks loudly but isn't heard, turning away in despair

away in despair lie the roots of hope

leaves of joy cascade upon my face

Like a queen she ground others into the dirt

dirt and beyond dirt lies the truth

Lies the truth where men daren't walk?

ashes of wishes and the withering of hope
