Deadly Diminuendo

There lies my body With holes where my eyes should have been Eaten by the alpine choughs They've taken my soul to the skies above Leaving what's left to the winds of the mountain Leaving what's left to the winds of the mountain It is calling me home And so through pine trees, I roam Blinded by the alpine choughs They've taken my humanity to the skies above Leaving what's left to the winds of the mountain Leaving what's left to the winds of the mountain Leaving what's left to the winds of the mountain Leaving what's left to the winds of the mountain I am listening to your still lingering echo While you're slowly fading away A deadly diminuendo And then silence, silence With your vertigo-inducing peaks Where I can hear the echoes shriek As if they are still falling You're making me weak in the knees I wonder, will they ever reach the ground beneath? Leaving what's left to the winds of the mountain Leaving what's left to the winds of the mountain Leaving what's left to the winds of the mountain Leaving what's left to the winds of the mountain I am listening to your still lingering echo While you're slowly fading away A deadly diminuendo And then silence, silence
