Thel's Motto
Beautiful
The lily stands proud
Self-satisfied
I could never stand aside
For every time I try
There stands my pride
Dutifully ungratified, she thinks that life is sacrifice
But I can't seem to put aside the roots that keep me up at night
If I have grown
And I will die
Then what lies
In my wake?
I watch
As the cloud casts his shadow
As I am swallowed whole
My strength is left behind
I couldn't reach his height
I am shallow, just an asset to his might
If this is all i've come to be
Then let his rain come and wash where I
Am laid in earth
If I have grown
And I will die
Then what lies
In my wake?
Mmmmm in my wake
Would the ground rather have me before I reach any power at all?
Is the earth craving nothing but a bruised and untouched soul?
I don't care if my love is served on gold or silver
Or nothing at all
I won't take what I can't keep
I'd much prefer to be buried in dignity than underneath
A gilded stone
Gilded stone
If I have grown
And I will die
Then what lies
In my wake?
If I have grown
And I will die
Then what lies
In my wake?
The lily stands proud
Self-satisfied
I could never stand aside
For every time I try
There stands my pride
Dutifully ungratified, she thinks that life is sacrifice
But I can't seem to put aside the roots that keep me up at night
If I have grown
And I will die
Then what lies
In my wake?
I watch
As the cloud casts his shadow
As I am swallowed whole
My strength is left behind
I couldn't reach his height
I am shallow, just an asset to his might
If this is all i've come to be
Then let his rain come and wash where I
Am laid in earth
If I have grown
And I will die
Then what lies
In my wake?
Mmmmm in my wake
Would the ground rather have me before I reach any power at all?
Is the earth craving nothing but a bruised and untouched soul?
I don't care if my love is served on gold or silver
Or nothing at all
I won't take what I can't keep
I'd much prefer to be buried in dignity than underneath
A gilded stone
Gilded stone
If I have grown
And I will die
Then what lies
In my wake?
If I have grown
And I will die
Then what lies
In my wake?
