Lyrics

You're the veil in the morning blue

You represent the mysterious barrier in the early morning sky.

I couldn't sleep, I was thinking

I couldn't sleep because I was contemplating thoughts of you.

Of you, of you

Continuation of thoughts about you.

You'll be the keeper of trees and light

You will be the protector of nature and illumination.

The elemental residing

You are the essential force dwelling.

With a cool wind blowing

With a refreshing wind blowing.


Keep something back

Retain a portion of yourself.

Something back

Emphasizing the need to keep something hidden or reserved.

Keep something back

Something back

Beast that never was

A mythical creature or concept that never truly existed.

Here between two worlds

The creature exists in a space between two realms or realities.


You threw the arrows, you threw the knife

You launched weapons, but they turned and affected you instead.

They spun around and went back into you, to you

Description of the repercussions of the thrown objects returning to the sender.

Shimmering in the full moon's path

Glowing in the path of the full moon, possibly referring to a mystical presence.

All blood and rhythm, you're running

Your essence is a combination of blood and rhythm, running through trees towards me.

Through trees to me

The entity is approaching through a natural environment.


Keep something back
