"So Rides The Reindeer" lyrics

"So Rides The Reindeer"

So rides the reindeer
I feel the earth beneath the snow
Got high, but remained here
Like a river that will overflow

So understanding
Replaces faith
I'm on my way
Oh, surround me
Potions I take to creep up the mountain

I was green when I left home
To go out and face the hate
Never thought it could be killed
The magic that had kept me safe
Dark eyes remain clear
In a void full of their traps
Bright colors to plain clothes
Tell me, how can I get my poems back?

So understanding
Replaces faith
I'm on my chain
Oh, surround me
Potions I take to creep up the mountain

Up is down
Tonight, we drown
Like someone who fought before me
Oh, I'm going home
Like I was never known
Take me outside
I don't want to die

So rides the reindeer
I try to remain here
There's a river that will never slow
So lies the reindeer
Earthbound, but far from home

So understanding
Replaces faith
Drunk on my pain
Oh, surround me
Potions I take
To creep up the mountain

Up is down
Tonight, we drown
Like someone who fought before me
Oh, I'm going home
Like I was never known
Take me outside
I don't want to die
