A Viking Named Caliente

listen to the mp3

The snow it has fallen, the fog has come behind
All that's left to say - still on our minds
Down in the shadows, a glimmer of light
A momentary window, closed tonight.
And every song is older than we used to be
Closer to a truth that may never set us free
It's a bittersweet reality in which we dwell
I wish you well
What I never noticed, is how we came to be
Tossed upon the southern stormy seas
Far from our fortune, farther from home
Outside of ourselves, yet all alone
For all the heights you've taken me, how can I complain?
But when the climb is over, it's one solace that remains
As nostalgia passes under, I'm reminded of the pain, though you can't tell
I wish you well
Sure, don't believe what you can't see
Still feels the same, to a different degree
Was this the best that we can do?
Answer me this question, let me step into your mind
How's it harder on the leaver than on the one who's left behind?
If the wise one sees it coming, then the lucky man is blind, safe in a shell
We hide so well
The sky it has fallen, the night's come behind
All that's left to say - still on our minds.
