Hope

Back when Prometheus had kept you in his jar
Then let you out to watch you shooting like a star
And everybody there had wondered who you are
I know, I know, I know
For I had watched you from the corner of the sky
Your spirit spinning through the orbits of my eye
And I could conjure you if only I could cry
I know, I know, I know
I saw your ghost in this room
You were hovering cold in puddles of twilight
You stared through violent squares
Pulsing vision impaired like some harlequin nomad
I saw you trapped in a skin like a magical djinn
A serious no show
He's got you chained to his wall
But this chasm is swirling your spirit
Right out of his hold
Back when Prometheus had kept you in his jar
Then let you out to watch you shooting like a star
And all the silent children wondered who you are
I know, I know, I know.
For I had followed you through fields of icy snow
Your spirit moving through a labyrinth of ghost
Then slow ascending through a circle like a star
I know, I know, I know
