[02:44.00]The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
[02:49.00]Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky
[02:54.14]A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers
[02:58.71]But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
[03:09.08]He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
[03:14.22]In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise
[03:19.03]He's chained forever to a world that's departed
[03:24.06]It's not enough, it's not enough
[03:54.32]His blood has frozen & curdled with fright
[03:59.26]His knees have trembled & given way in the night
[04:04.21]His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
[04:09.83]His step has faltered
[04:20.04]One world, one soul
[04:30.00]Time pass, the river rolls
[05:40.32]And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
[05:45.35]And silent replies that swirl invitation
[05:50.90]Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
[05:56.12]A grim intimation of what is to be
[06:06.28]There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night
[06:11.00]And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
[06:16.01]And silence that speaks so much louder than words
[06:21.06]Of promises broken
