lyrics

GORDIAN KNOT


I should remember, you were my own
First son born to me, I’ve never known
Let me explain it, please read my mind
This Gordian knot will never unwind

Thoughts in the present, you live in the past

I’ll tell you of my life, when I was young
I’ll tell you the words from songs never sung
Sometimes I hear them when it’s so dark
But the black keys are white and the white notes are sharp

Maybe you’re dreaming, how could you forget?
Coming and going, thoughts through my head
These are the moments that I always dread

I hear your cries and I feel your pain
I have heard every word that you’ve said
Please wake me up when the Jabberwocks dead

When my mind fills with sights I cannot name
I live in fear, it appears the Jaberwocks tame
Sometimes my mind is his, sometimes I’m free
But I know he isn’t tame – he’ll never be

I miss you so much, I knew you so well
When a new moon would rise the rivers would swell
We set our boat out to sea, same memories…

Lethe took them away, he took you from me

I will live on through each one of you
Until our minds meet again someday soon

This Gordian knot, will never unwind
No matter how hard, how hard I try
The Jabberwock lives but I’m gone and free
Keep me alive by remembering me…
