Moddi - Thimbleweed lyrics
[Moddi - Thimbleweed lyrics]
We built this place with high hopes
Blood on our hands
A giant on our shoulders and
Maps of unfound land
G-d would give his blessings in
A language I don't speak
A blessing for the waking
The tired and the weak
A promise of a new day
Born with every little seed
And gardens growing over with
Snow white baby thimbleweed
Then came the first eruptions
And everybody was amazed
A triumph for the structure and
All the memories it erased
But structures are forever and do
Not care about the mind
We hid behind our eyelids in
Fear of what we'd find
Now everyone was sleeping heavier
Than ever before
As broken vows and dead dreams
Washed upon a silver shore
I sat there by the window as
The hours turned to years
And never gave up hoping there would
Be something for me here
Now everyone was waiting for a
Day that never came
And wherever the wind blew
The sky would stay the same
Blood on our hands
A giant on our shoulders and
Maps of unfound land
G-d would give his blessings in
A language I don't speak
A blessing for the waking
The tired and the weak
A promise of a new day
Born with every little seed
And gardens growing over with
Snow white baby thimbleweed
Then came the first eruptions
And everybody was amazed
A triumph for the structure and
All the memories it erased
But structures are forever and do
Not care about the mind
We hid behind our eyelids in
Fear of what we'd find
Now everyone was sleeping heavier
Than ever before
As broken vows and dead dreams
Washed upon a silver shore
I sat there by the window as
The hours turned to years
And never gave up hoping there would
Be something for me here
Now everyone was waiting for a
Day that never came
And wherever the wind blew
The sky would stay the same
