The Glass Desert I - Giants

For long, the path ahead of me seemed empty

Never-ending space could swallow you

But now we stand in this eclipse beneath these

Monolithings of what the ages grew

Living in the dark keeps a mind in shade

But you have to glow

(Lighting your way through the rough)

Blind enough to slight the giants

(Oh, won't you stay for a while?)

(Delay for a while?)

(Play, come what may, for a while?)

Circling stones, seeking some silver lining

Afraid of a road with no map to define it

We're carving holes in the paths just behind us

We're still afraid what's waiting 'round the bend

Living in the dark keeps a mind in shade

But you have to glow

(Lighting your way through the rough)

(Blind enough to slight the giants)

Giving in the spark is to lay in the grave

But you have to grow

Lines in silence

High enough to topple giants
