The Demon's Daughter
I've waited here so long,
Counting through the hours.
I heard a strange sad song,
Coming from the towers.
I turned my head to follow,
The voices tumbling downward.
Worn away and hollow.
A window in the cloud there.
We lay down low,
Our world divides.
One part won't wake.
One comes alive.
I saw the demon's daughter,
I tried to make her smile.
We waded in the water.
She shivered like a child.
We swam out to the island.
I knew that I was dreaming.
The world below was silent.
The world above was screaming.
We lay down low,
Our world divides.
One part won't wake.
One comes alive.
Oh, the I heard the callin' out from below.
She took me by the hand and she never let go.
I could not feel the cold wind, I could not feel the thorns.
I could not tear my eyes from the light that drew me on.
The horse will ride the rider.
The slave has rule the master.
The web will trap the spider.
The father births the bastard.
The buildings are all falling.
The people don't remember.
The oceans are dissolving.
The forests burned to embers.
We lay down low,
Our world divides.
One part won't wake.
One comes alive.
We lay down low,
Our world divides.
One part won't wake.
One comes alive.
