Falling Lyrics - Pain Of Salvation

Once 

I had a mountain of my own 

With moss and walls and magic 

And a mighty view 

A forest of my own 

Listening to me 

Showing me its secret paths and trails 

Green with depths and sleeping sunrises 

Thorns that never cut 

My feet and face 

A pine of my own 

Offering a seat in the sunset 

Painting windy pictures 

Arabesques 

Of fortune and forever 

Too large to fit 

Even in a child's pocket 

Now 

Arabesques of forgetfulness 

Are left to burn holes 

In my white tapestry and fangible wallpaper 

Once 

I had a world of my own 

It is still there 

Only 

I am gone
