Beautiful & Monstrous Lyrics

Outside my window
A world in shades of gray
Things will break and never really heal
And still I have to hold on
Clingin' on
On to something
Making me feel... alive

When all the earth is sleeping in the dark
Don't look for me and all the words I said
'Cause there are things that must remain concealed
Thought we were one
Thought we were one once

I keep on searching 'cause I believe
Believe life to be worth more than a dream
Would you release me from all that I feel?
Would you just save me from going down?

Mother, please help me to walk through the longest of nights
Mother, save me so that I can walk with light in my eyes
Walk on with light in my eyes
Walk on with light in my eyes

Hear the mountains roar and watch the skies collapse
The deserts drink the rivers
As shores swallow the sea
A metaphor
A mirror
Pictures that delude
Compromise the beauties and apogees of things

Mother, please help me to walk through the longest of nights
Mother, save me so that I can walk with sun in my eyes
Walk on with sun in my eyes
Walk on with sun in my eyes
In my eyes

Put a blanket on this freezing soul
Of my emptiness and insecurity
That fears that love is
That fears love's one breath away from dying
Warm me with an ancient wind of time
Mighty Gaia
Immemorial and plain
Pour your poetry on me now
And cover me to sleep beneath your brightest stars...
