Magician lyrics

[Verse 1]
At the beginning of it all
There was a figure in white
Not quite holy, not quite human
At the beginning of it all
There was a boy on a hill
A soft furrowed brow and a difficult choice
He made a third option
Became the magician
Oh, they all wonder where he is now

[Verse 2]
To who, to whom
Am I learning to speak?
Everything, my dear
The rocks and the trees
They saw what is not always plainest to see
They wade in the river of time to the sea

[Verse 3]
Blood spilling red like rubies
Red like pomegranate seeds
Hands tangled in vines
He's alive because he bleeds
Boy who's working, waiting his turn
Dust he came
To dust he'll return
Tethered to the pulse of it all
A drop of water and then the fall
Further and further and further away
A soul unwound
Forever astray
Further and further and further away
[Outro]
A soul unwound
Forever astray
