Paroles de Shattered Ground
I'm travelling appallingly alone on a singular roadInto the lavender fields that reach high beyond the sky
People ask me how I changed, I say it is a singular road
And the lavender has stained my skin and made me strange
The lavender is tall and reaches beyond the heavenly cover
I plough through this furious world of which I'm truly over
And sometimes I hear my name, oh where did you go?
But the lavender is broad and it's a singular road
Once I was running with my friends
All of them busy with their pens
But the lavender grew rare, what happened to them?
Sometimes I see a pale bird wheeling in the sky
But that is just a feeling, a feeling when you die
Where did they go?
Where did they hide?
We don't ask who
We don't ask why
There is a kingdom in the sky
There is a kingdom in the sky
We walk and walk
Across the hills
We walk and walk
Through lavender hills
Where did they go? There is a kingdom in the sky
Where did they go?
Where did they hide?
We don't ask who
We don't ask why
There is a kingdom in the sky
There is a kingdom in the sky
