Riddle Song

By thndrhwk

I heard in the winds that far off In the gray lands There lives a princess who's curse Keeps her weaving As she sits in towers and watches Time pass her by. Wise she is, and while waiting For the one who will save her, If indeed there is someone Who dares love against love, She'll sing you a riddle In which all is revealed. Lyr a-liddle lay As clouds float through my music And fly away. Lyr a-liddle lee I dare not trust you but Please don't leave me. Lyr a-liddle lah In riddles I've no choice but to Sing this song All moment long... So, full of wonder, I quested Uncertain but sure That through these windows the mountains Could grow past all limits Of sky and I'd climb just as high As I tried. Rain parched my lips beyond saving While desert sun burned at my freezing, For all sides are represented To those facing the whole world, Until in the shadows Winds granted the way. Lyr a-liddle lye In contradictions and beauty And darkness and I Lyr a-liddle lee Live seeds that to me now Mean everything. Lyr a-liddle lah And praying to learn I must Sing this song For so long... And here in this tower beyond All my knowing I watch this strange girl as she Hums her odd song, As she sits weaving with silver and ice In the frosty light. While she breathes life into work Undone twice, I ask her My answers that waited these years Fighting hard against harder She looks from her work and she Smiles. Lyr a-liddle lee Are you wrong or right and why Do you ask me? Lyr a-liddle lah You can not be normal if You are human. Lyr a-liddle lay Tell me, why must snowflakes all Fade at the day, Fade away? Fade away... And so I must trust this with you Or I'm insane Leaving curses and myst'ries To princesses half slain For I've still far to go if I Am this far. In this heavyness brought on by Light of day, solving riddles Of my own, still waiting Waiting for what I know Can not be known. Lyr a-liddle lay As clouds float through my music And fly away. Lyr a-liddle lee I dare not trust you but Please don't leave me. Lyr a-liddle lah In riddles I've no choice but to Sing this song For far too long While I'm still strong Alone I sing on...
