So I'll be the voice - You'll be the silence I'd fill the world - You'd trade it for the old Would one drop in the emptiness suffice? I'll be the coal - so be my diamond I'd shape the earth - you'd bend before the world Just one drop in the emptiness suffices Will your wide mouth and your 'perfect' will rule? I'll raise your voice We'll build the perfect world So don't look down Weld your arms around me A path through a maze As long as I'm around The clouds will never drown You said that you'd keep me alive You said that we'd breathe in a withering dream Run fingers through sand Don't be silent Our world is one base We won't vaporize The drought took the end We'll rule this world Far from the two lines We'll lead the world from a far site Far from where our tools lie So don't look down Weld your arms around me You'll never lose face As long as I'm around Clouds will never drown You said that you'd keep me alive You said that we'd live in a withering dream
