See me look unveiled when I walk out of the canyon,
And see me start to climb on the end of day.
But who's there to see me walk out?
There's no beacon, no sun to block out,
No bird of blaze.
A close dark voice says:
"Do you really think there's anybody out there?"
"Uh-huh"
So what no-one sees me?
What do I care now the black night has seized me?
On a mountains mane, I climb to my claim
And I'm aimless, alone, and unravelling.
Above, baron wastelands stare at me.
They know my name
"What do you want?"
And I know I'll be in the air,
That my trail passes Lion's lairs,
And I see someone's buried in more air
Buried in s***e
There's no end in sight.
How many times have I learned this before?
How many times have I made up this song before?
How many times have I died up here before?
And, oh how hidden tomorrow morning is!
What heavy fog!
What wide shadow!
Universe, I know you.
And see me start to climb on the end of day.
But who's there to see me walk out?
There's no beacon, no sun to block out,
No bird of blaze.
