Lyrics (unofficial)

In a room
Dark as night
The words you write
Won't get through
Won't get through

Hiding you
Underneath
Eternal peace
As you fade
Slip away
Slip away

Languishing
Vanishing
Shrinking
Into dust
Into dusk

Here I am
Open me
Empty me
Pour me out
Fill your cup
Drink me up

On the wind
In the trees
Through the leaves
Hear your voice
You rejoice

On a wave
In the sea
To the deep
You will go
To and fro
Down below

When you try
To survive
Stay alive
Time goes slow
Time goes slow

Now you're free
Finally
Silently
You have gone
A faded song
A murdered swan
