Beginnings - Houses

Well, I watched the house

As it fell right to the ground

Well, I was away from you

Well, I was away from you

And I watched the birds

As they fell out from the sky

Into the hands of decay

I wish there was a way for you

And I felt your voice

As it carried with the wind

Like a fire in my ears

Like the darkness of fear

Like the voice of God

And now I’ll turn to dust

And the ground will shake for you

Like a song in your heels

Like a ghost in the field

And I would bathe in ash

As it rained down from above

And it would cast me out now

Into the fields of love

And I watched the birds

As they fell out from the sky

Into the hands of decay

I wish there was a way for you

And I felt your voice

As it carried with the wind

Like a fire in my ears

Like the darkness of fear

Like the voice of God
