Farewell To A Percival - Simon Joyner[00:00:00]

So you planned to chip away at trouble[00:00:14]

But it left you standing in the rubble[00:00:20]

Now your tears are trapped in crystal puddles[00:00:26]

With a stone portrait of your double[00:00:32]

And if you begged me to remain around[00:00:43]

Would grief keep tearing at your gown[00:00:48]

All the sadness waltzing around your frown[00:00:54]

Well it's bound to bring some ceilings down[00:01:00]

Now there ain't no reason my heart will hear[00:01:09]

So you can shed the pickax and climbing gear[00:01:15]

But please don't stand and watch my back disappear[00:01:22]

As I fade into the mountains there[00:01:28]

Whose to say the sky is mean[00:01:38]

If it stands between you and your kingdom[00:01:43]

They say some things are meant to be seen[00:01:49]

And some things are meant to be kept hidden[00:01:56]

All those saints who feed on virtue are ruthless[00:02:26]

Saying you need a deed to be so virtuous[00:02:32]

And guilt is vainly plainly discouraged[00:02:38]

As we kow-tow to their courage[00:02:44]

But I saw the glorious white arch fall[00:02:53]

And the great soldier children were crushed and all[00:03:00]

The townspeople looked and saw their shadows[00:03:05]

And then had to stay inside and drain their pillows[00:03:11]

Then I had a dream seven nights in a row[00:03:20]

You were following me through all these doomed places I go[00:03:28]

Well I knew I was weak but I guess I didn't know[00:03:35]

I was in need of a guardian angel[00:03:41]

Whose to say the sky is mean[00:03:49]

If it stands between you and your kingdom[00:03:55]

They say some things are meant to be seen[00:04:01]

And some things are meant to be kept hidden[00:04:07]

The river I follow has turned so small[00:04:36]

I can't hardly swallow any strength at all[00:04:42]

And the pale fish rotting in its muddy walls[00:04:49]

I know they lost their eyes before they stalled[00:04:55]

So I search and I yearn and I barely breathe[00:05:04]

And the person who once knew you is no longer me[00:05:10]

With my torn yellow map and my dry canteen[00:05:17]

I can't stop to count my blessings[00:05:22]

Or the curved lines of longitude[00:05:31]

I burned as if they were fuses[00:05:37]

To pass the mirage and land the oasis[00:05:43]

Where I'm going to fill up all these empty spaces[00:05:49]

Whose to say the sky is mean[00:05:59]

If it stands between you and your kingdom[00:06:03]

They say some things are meant to be seen[00:06:11]

And some things are meant to be kept hidden[00:06:16]

To pass the mirage and land the oasis[00:06:46]

Where I'm going to fill up all these empty spaces[00:06:53]

And free myself of these earthly races[00:06:59]

I'll send you my thirst first and then the laces[00:07:05]

Of my shoes[00:07:14]
