Owl

You know I went blind years ago
From staring at a woman in flames
I was a kid then with no shame
And she stood naked in that cave
And now all I see is her silver silhouette
And now all I see is her silver silhouette

There is a spirit who crosses these woods at night
I only know him from the sound of his wings
Beating the air, breaking branches, scattering the leaves
And sometimes he calls to me, but I just haven't got the ears to hear

In these still and snowed in woods
Among the withered leafless trees
You may see by the light of a forgotten day
A spotless owl spreads his wings
And flies away towards a purple gleam on the horizon
And flies away towards a purple gleam and you can hear him sing

Oh, open your eyes
Oh, open your eyes
Oh, open your eyes
Oh, open your eyes

And oh, open your eyes
This world is not so black and white
There is a color that will not die
The dawn of the day that never ends
The dawn of the day that never ends
The dawn of the day that never ends.
