Cygnus from Mariner

Can you see what's following you It has a mind of its own Steps so quiet you can't hear it A parasite without a home It's got a smile but you don't trust it Concrete reasons unknown Put it behind you in the space of your day A parasite without a home Can you see what's following you It has a mind of its own Steps so quiet you can't hear it A parasite without a home Leave her to sing her withered songs In tunnels painted like the dawn Bring me the echo 'til it's gone Nothing escapes this hold Desperate against the cold Its flesh made out of stardust Iron oxide into rust To write a letter to the night This songless, sightless, silent giant This feeble plea A speck of dust A drop of sea It's locked in you and me Rip it out and feel its heat Forget the way things seem to be Meaningless to the one and only Leave her to sing her withered songs In tunnels painted like the dawn Bring me the echo 'til it's gone Nothing escapes this hold Desperate against the cold Its flesh made out of stardust Iron oxide into rust It's got a smile but you don't trust it Concrete reasons unknown Put it behind you in the space of your day A parasite without a home And she'll be standing strong Her hair is lost in storm Open your mouth, let air rush in To get a sense of her form And she'll be standing strong Her hair is lost in storm Open your mouth, let air rush in To get a sense of her form She'll be standing while you suffer Her hair is lost in the storm Open your mouth, let air rush in To get a sense of her form But if the audience is imminent And if your parasites come home Remember the old adage Deep roots are not reached by frost Leave her to her withered song Tunnels painted like the dawn Write your letter to the night Sightless, songless, silent giant Leave her Leave her to her withered song Withered song Tunnels painted like the dawn Write your letter to the night Write your Sightless, songless, silent giant Sightless, songless, silent giant Leave her to her withered song Leave her to her withered song Tunnels painted like the dawn Tunnels painted like the dawn Write your letter to the night Write your letter to the night Sightless, songless, silent giant Sightless, songless, silent giant
