Hold Fast 04:12
There on the moor His cape lay still Sun-bleached worn Materials Because I remember when A thousand miles Was just beyond the garden wall And we could escape there then To become whoever We wanted to be We were kites Rising high Pulling Twine Til' you were blown away Cos' I remember when A thousand eons Lay across the fence, waiting to be explored With capes around our necks We ruled an empire And as we ran, yours fell to the ground Cos' these changes aren't forever Time moves on we fade away And like cotton slowly fraying The circle never sways I fly your kite Rising high Pulling Twine Til' i am blown away They are kites Rising high Pulling Twine Through the people who remain
