lyrics

I'm crossing a river looking for you
Wading through stones in the blue
A gash of the sunlight the flashing of steel
There's blood on my shoe

I follow the trail and the droplets of red
Color the ground as I go
Past the old tracks and the unturning mill
Where did you go
Oh where did you go

And I turn around and there's nothing but green

And it's alright when the silence grows
Breaking away from the things that I know
And it's alright with a silent soul
But who'll help me down
Oh who'll help me down

I fall asleep in a grass covered field
Wake in the break of the dawn
And I see a bird looking down at me
I can't hear the song

The droplets of blood are filling my head
And now I know where you've been
And if I feel ya then maybe I'll see ya
Here with the rest
Here with the rest

And I'm spinning round oh this must be a dream

And it's alright when the silence grows
Breaking away from the things that I know
And it's alright with a silent soul
But who'll help me down
Oh who'll help me down
