Heathaze

No cloud, a sleepy calm Sunbaked earth, that's cooled by gentle breeze And trees with rustling leaves Only endless days without a care Nothing must be done Silent as a day can be Far off sounds of others on their chosen run As they do all those things they feel Give life some meaning even if they're dull It's time to stop this dreaming Must rejoin the real world As revealed by orange lights And a smoky atmosphere The trees and I are shaken by That same wind but whereas The trees will lose their withered leaves I just can't seem to let them loose And they can't refresh me Those hot winds of the south Oh, I feel like an alien A stranger in an alien place Now the light is fading fast Chances slip away, a time will come to pa*s When there'll be none Then addicted to a perfumed poison Betrayed by its aftertaste Oh, we shall lose the wonder And find nothing in return Many are the substitutes But they're powerless on their own Beware the fisherman Who's casting out his line Into a dried up river bed But don't try to tell him 'Cause he won't believe you Throw some bread to the ducks instead It's easier that way I feel like an alien A stranger in an alien place The trees and I are shaken by That same wind but whereas The trees will lose their withered leaves I just can't seem to let them loose And they can't refresh me Those hot winds of the south I feel like an alien A stranger in an alien place
