Lyrics

The crooked blinds of the morn
reminds my own blindness
of the night’s now distant light
beckoning, like a siren on an islet
only returning with less than I felt
before.

Don’t ask me of more than my body’s
will, as I can only swim so far
and with each day I come closer
and closer to the innermost shore

When blindness returns
under cloudless skies, I'm only
to be found weaker
on each receding wave

Clear, oh it’s almost clear
Clear, oh it’s almost so clear
Clear, oh it’s so clear
