lyrics

I drag myself down to my own profound space
From our glories of past, and the loss of Kyou

I chase your back (all the mornings we had tea)
In a humid dim cave of memories (all the moments we have fought)
I still chant about your stale diary

Your footprints lost (I stand behind you, look back)
Let me be a fool just a little while (can you hear me when I speak?)
I still grieve over your agony

Over the land, and this cold sky
Wind whispers rumours of a strange bridge

"Across the bridge
No hope shall be preserved
You reach the end
And there's no way to get back"

Over the red dried-up river
It stands and leads to the realm of our Hades

And her body was strawled, leaning on the floor
I will never behold her again

(Let it go, let it go)

The revelation echoed but you chose to stay alone again
As the people here did to escape with hope, the change
Now I can hear what you heard before you crossed
Hold on, don't walk away

Chimeras down to the floor
Pain of ambassadors,
Hiding reality, from my eyes

Their howls in undertone
Leak from the path undone
Return to ground alone, as I watch you

I gather every rose
I gather every drop
I gather all your ashes, Kyou

The Anne Quillier 6tet stripped down to a trio- just keyboard, clarinet, and drums. I can recommend it just as highly- this is FANTASTIC progressive jazz. Deidre House
