lyrics

The dying flower seems
So restless in the sea
It's thrown all round and round
And never to be found
I bring these words to you
It's all that I can do
A universe miner
But I am just the messenger

I'll bring these words to you (the messenger)
It's all that I can do

[Lead: Mark]

Towards snowy peaks we climb
Great labor, forlorn mind
You're here to be so bold
As to at last reclaim your soul
I've brought you to the window, see
This house does not belong to me
In short sojourns I've passed through there
But I am just the messenger

Go forth into the world
My tale will still be told
The bleeding snake, the ancient lake
The mountain men so bold
These words that touch your heart
This is my only art
To give what I've received
The messenger's my part
