Journey

I lost my mind what a lonely hour
creeping down the stairs of the church bell tower
there aint nobody listening
to a lost birdsong
when the time does come
don't listen for long

Blood red stain of the morning 
inside a royal robe of blue
The strangest face of lightning
and a poppy red tea for two

follow my voice,
don't gaze at the moon
insanity takes too long 

follow my voice
I'll see you through
no need to lie
there is no truth
take rest take heart
