In my garden, among the trees 

runs a river, ten foot deep 

in it lies a hundred tears 

In my garden, among the trees 



In my dreams, among the ruins 

of past and present fears and lies. 

I dance on air, among the trees 

In my dreams, among the ruins 



Swallow all my well meant faults 

let me from the darkness vault 

I am fading, paint me back 

resembling shadow black 



As the cold veil of white erases every trace 

the raptured remnants of summer leaves 

Gone without a single word or phrase 

are all the colored autumn leaves 



In my ashes dwells no soul 

it has flown to behold 

Father, son, young and old 

In my ashes dwells no soul 



In forever I am tall 

flowers breathe, large and small 

feed on water, feed on all 

In forever I am tall 



Pride yourself to have me known 

I am in the picture shown 

Resembling shadow tall 

not fading, I am all
