So, I finally got around to rerecording the vocals on this, since the first time I did it was just a test to see if my new mic worked any better than the one I had previously.
Verse 1
A masterpiece of sand
Waiting for the waves
A simple structure held in
Nothing but a picture frame
A tired notebook
Left upon the shelf
Tired words contained in
Nothing but a memory
Nothing more
So what heavens blessed me
With the skills to watch my
Creations fade and die
Without a second look
Name the God-like monster
That I may pray to them
Release my words and art and
Let them come back home
Home to me
Chorus
A figure divine
Calls my words his home
A dormant life without
And never to wake again
A figure divine
Does not hear my prayer
The words escape me still and
Shelter a selfish god
Verse 2
Slip into the past
Watch the years fly by
A tired mind rewinding
Takes only so much before
Before it breaks
So why can't I place these
Words and pictures home
A whispered cry for freedom
Never will it pass
A figure divine
Calls my words his home
A dormant life without
And never to wake again
A figure divine
Does not hear my prayer
The words escape me still and
Shelter a selfish god
(solo)
A figure divine
Calls my words his home
A dormant life without
And never to wake again
A figure divine
Does not hear my prayer
The words escape me still and
Shelter a selfish god
A figure divine
Calls my words his home
A dormant life without
And never to wake again
A figure divine
Does not hear my prayer
The words escape me still and
Shelter a selfish god
