"Crystals" lyrics

"Crystals"

Lost in skies of powdered gold
Caught in clouds of silver ropes
Showered by the empty hopes
As I tumble down, falling fast to the ground

I know I'll wither so peel away the bark
'Cause nothing grows when it is dark
In spite of all my fears, I can see it all so clear
I see it all so clear

Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And feel the tones that tremble down your spine
Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And let your colors bleed and blend with mine

Making waves in pitch black sand
Feel the salt dance on my hands
Raw and charcoal colored thighs feel so cold
And my skin feels so paper-thin

I know I'll wither so peel away the bark
'Cause nothing grows when it is dark
In spite of all my fears, I can see it all so clear
I see it all so clear

Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And feel the tones that tremble down your spine
Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And let your colors bleed and blend with mine

But I'm okay in see-through skin
I forgive what is within
'Cause I'm in this house
I'm in this home
All my time

Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And feel the tones that tremble down your spine
Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And let your colors bleed and blend with mine
