Carry Me

Open my mind let the thought follow in
In the wake of the scent of the summer wind beckoning
This is the chance I've been needing
This is the change I've been looking for
Beating the moths to the flame of my fear
Burning holes in me

Gracing my hopes with the scars of my days
Though long lived and prosperous memory fades
And I cannot recall ever seeing
Such as my newfound need for believing
Nothing yet not unlike anything
I've ever been before

Like I was never there
Was I ever there
Then what are these memories I know we share

Carry me to the river of my fortune
Faithfully I will follow no guiding light
Carry me to your blossoming orchard
Thankfully I will let you carry me

Hold on to me as reality breaks
The liquid inside the sugar core evaporates
This is the taste I've been savouring
This is the tonic my pain has me swallowing
Give me clarity, make me forget
My name I never knew

Like I was never there
Was I ever there
Then what are these memories I know we share

Carry me to the river of my fortune
Faithfully I will follow no guiding light
Carry me to your blossoming orchard
Thankfully I will let you carry me

Open your arms let this whipping boy in
Away from the faces of ruthless gods harrowing
This is the home I've been making
This is the place of my heart I've been searching
To here lead the footprints the beach was saving just for me
