To emerge and to breathe anew
For a purpose so far from my own
And this world I've awoken to
Seems familiar but somehow unknown
And the branches of gold on the skyline
Reach out to the sweep of the stars
The beginnings and endings of lifetimes
A guidance of light from afar
Down
Down come the leaves
Do you believe
Words of the gilded and gold
Down
Drenched by the rain
Seared by the flame
Branches shall loosen their hold
Guided by grace ever led
These weary feet still tread
Over the fallen leaves
Do you believe
Do you believe now
Fallen leaves
Wake up and breathe
Do you believe now
Once rejected, the lowest caste
Now they bid us return to their grace
To forget the unfeeling past
To accept this undying embrace
And this light now bestowed on the lowly
Cannot reach the dark corners of old
Cruel rule of the highborn and holy
Lies in smoldering ash in the cold
Down
Down come the leaves
Do you believe
Words of the gilded and gold
Down
Drenched by the rain
Seared by the flame
Branches shall loosen their hold
Guided by grace ever led
These weary feet still tread
Over the fallen leaves
Do you believe
Do you believe now
Fallen leaves
Wake up and breathe
Do you believe now
Was it all that you wanted and more?
Was it all you imagined before?
Smashed into splinters
Shards they will fall
Tears of the timber
Blanketing all
Branches forlorn
Shed golden leaves
Order and form in the
Patterns they weave
Taste of the tears
Stitches and scars
Spinning the spheres
We severed the stars
Touched the primordial
Entropy lost
The carnal, corporeal
Suffer the cost
Ghosts in the deep
Watch over her shades
Awakened from sleep
To falter and fade
Rot in the roots
And sleep in the womb
A beautiful blue
Paints the rays of the moon
Down
Down come the leaves
Do you believe
Words of the gilded and gold
Down
Drenched by the rain
Seared by the flame
Branches shall loosen their hold
Guided by grace ever led
These weary feet still tread
Over the fallen leaves
Do you believe
Do you believe now
Fallen leaves
Wake up and breathe
Do you believe now
