Dashiell Grey - The Open Book Lyrics

I cannot reach the foothills,
Nor the summit
I am living thru' stills
For which I cannot plummet

There's knowledge in the rivers
From which we drink,
Yet nobody delivers
And there is no time to think

Once I was a melody
Once I was desire
But time gave me fidelity
Long past my fire

I bid so long and farewell
But to whom I'm not sure
I've tried to contribute well
But eventually I deplore

I believe I am released.
For my rein is extended
And ahead I face East
But behind me is apprehended

And you'll find the path
I've made through shame
My resolve needs a bath
And less incentives to blame

And affinity finally
For the two of us as we are
And bound to stay bound finally free
From silence and from scar

Your love is lovely
Your fineness is fine
I hope that you'll only
Find someone you see as divine

For I have since ages
Found what it took:
In these broken pages
Of my open book.

I believe I am released.
For my rein is extended
And ahead I face East
But behind me is apprehended
