lyrics

no more listening to what I say
don't look to me to understand
there's no special meaning here
I'm just an ordinary man

swiping at flies and twisting fate
is that all that you can do?
there's no such thing as innocent
don't tell me you always knew

the moment is long past
the grains have drained away
the final me is beckoning
to sample something grey

now gaze upon the ever star
and watch while epochs fail
then fade along the horizon
into the distance, sail
gone into the emptiness
gone into the void
quake and shake the olden tree
but never ever be a toy

no more listening to what I say
don't look to me to understand
there's no special meaning here
I'm just an ordinary man

swiping at flies and twisting fate
is that all that you can do?
there's no such thing as innocent
don't tell me you always knew

the moment is long past
the grains have drained away
the final me is beckoning
to sample something grey

now gaze upon the ever star
and watch while epochs fail
then fade along the horizon
into the distance, sail
gone into the emptiness
gone into the void
quake and shake the olden tree
quake and shake the olden tree
quake and shake the olden tree
