lyrics

CLUTCHING AT DUST.

Falling away....slipping away....clutching at dust.

It's sinking slowly like the setting sun....
It's imperceptible and slipping away.
Almost unnoticed...low behind the trees....
And almost gone - and almost gone
To just a whisper....
What's left of it.

It echoes in the wind of eventide.....
It sighs a solemn breath
And breathless - it's unheard....
Like a lost plea....wafting aimlessly....
Clutching at dust.

Falling away...slipping away....clutching at dust.

It's freeing freezingly - it's freezing free....
It frees freezingly - it's freezing
Freeing freezingly.

Pockets of salty ash - bloodless - bloodless
Caressing empty air with crushing tears.
Co-co-coagulating breath-blood - breath-blood...
Preserving curds -
Preserving curds - in gritty brine....
Imagine flying....
Imagine flying....
Imagine flying - over the precipice....
Clutching at dust.

It's sinking slowly like the setting sun....
It's imperceptible and slipping away.
Almost unnoticed...low behind the trees....
And almost gone - and almost gone -
It's almost gone to just a whisper....
All that's left of it.

It echoes in the wind of eventide.....
It sighs a solemn breath
And breathless - it's unheard....
Like a lost plea....wafting aimlessly....
Clutching at dust!
Clutching at dust!

It's sinking slowly like the setting sun....
It's imperceptible and slipping away.
Almost unnoticed...low behind the trees....
And almost gone - and almost gone -
It's almost gone to just a whisper....
All that's left of it.

Falling away....slipping away....clutching at dust.
