The landslide roaring
Take me down this rocky path
To the where I’m supposed to be
And lift this heavy weight that brings me down
Keep my will from failing me
This left hand path has led me astray
I’m lost and I cannot see
Will there ever be an end to this?
Is it the ground beneath my feet?
Save me
Save me
The flesh at my fingertips is tearing
Save me
Holding on the edge
Lend me the strength to hold on a moment longer
Lend me just a few more steps
The soil splits and fractures
Vibrating under pressure
As the earth silently whispers
It croons its warning song
A chilling familiarity
I am staring at the dust
Debris and rocks begin the dance
Drawing full circle
Seismic blast
Do you see the end?
Can you hear the earth’s wrath?
Bellowing and crushing avalanche
Rocks are falling
Thundering deafening
Do you see the end?
I am the landslide roaring
Debris is pouring
Dancing to gravity
Screaming at a deaf abyss
Dancing to gravity
And so I question where I’m supposed to be
And the fact remains that I’m lost without a sense
The soil splits and fractures
Vibrating under all this pressure
Under the sun the earth sits still
Silently forming
Roaring its final clamor
Preparing for the end
To return
And dissolve to the earth
To return
And dissolve to the earth
Life escapes unuttered beneath the crushing rocks
Thundering deafening
I’m certain like me this too will pass
So long my friend
We didn’t plan this abrupt goodbye
No chance for all the things we’ll never say
Couldn’t wait
Could we look back on all those times
Cries and smiles are all we have now
Can we take a moment
Reminisce the hour
Holding dear all the memories of the friendship that we found
And like another brother
You’re always in our hearts
Your memory we won’t forget
We won’t forget you
At the peak of the ridge
A charming breeze
Calm and serene
The sound of peace as I see the ground below
Cascade at the edge of a cliff
A breaking precipice
I am the landslide roaring
Dancing to gravity
Dancing memory
When the soil is shattering
Can you hear it thundering
Nothing escapes the grasp
Of the landslide roaring avalanche
Seven years that may have been short
(Nothing escapes it)
Pain was nowhere to be found in your innocent eyes
(Beneath the crushing rocks only life escapes)
Seven years that may have been long
(Nothing escapes it)
You have done your father proud, now once again goodbye
(Only life escapes unuttered peace)
