lyrics

He sat there at the edge of the pier,
Waiting for the storm to appear
His sister at the edge of the land,
Calling for a change of plan
He could feel the black in the air,
Pushing trees and pulling his hair
As she turns to go anywhere but here

Sleepless when the night is alive,
Weary when the day is afire
Suspended just like Tantalus;
Between the need and desire
She is not a memory now,
She is made of delicate dreams
And he is enamoured with how the clouds are moving here

They lost everything in the wind,
He watched as the rain poured in
He became a part of the sound,
Eleven breezes blowing around
She became an altar of stone,
Her mind was a pillar of smoke
Clouds moved in a waltz over land that had never known a shadow
