There was once a blind girl

Eyes pale as moonlit ice

She swam out in the waters

Just to touch reflected skies

I thought this lovely girl

Was completely lost and helpless

But really, I was

I should have known better than this

(Chorus)

She taught me things I never thought I'd known before

Like how, when the sky is bright, the eagle starts to soar

The colors of the sunset when it's setting o'er the sea

These are wondrous things that I never thought could be

But then the loneliness set upon her frightened face

I thought I'd never see another happy place

She told all the horrid thought on her mind

As I watched the dieing stars appear in a blackening sky

(Differentiated Chorus)

She told me all the secrets of the world and more

I wanted to find her heart, to love it to the core

But so many people stood, haunting my dear path

That my wanting of sweet solace turned to terrifying wrath

So my body writhed in violence

As loneliness gripped my mind

Until this blinded beauty

Came and whispered from behind

"If you take all the hatred from humanity,

All that's left is a sliver of insanity…"

I watched the falling moon

As she listened to the night

My soul was held in wonder

For I loved this girl of light

(Chorus)

(Second Differentiated Chorus)

She told me all the secrets of the world and more

But this time I truly listened, as I'd never done before

There were so many things I'd never tried to even notice

When she spoke, I felt my life was starting over

I knew the fury of the clovers

Each time I took a step

The glory of the universe

I held a bated breath

The wildness of the animals

Even when they're calm

The way this loving darling

Holds my heart within her palm
