Hollow Stone,
Early morning you slip out the window
And glide through the dew
All alone,
Back a thousand years

And you know there is no answer,
They can give you, they can give you,
For the words are not there for them to choose

After all,
You are only a molecule drifting
An atom afloat
As you fall,
Into space from your lonely shell of fear

You raise your hands, and gaze in wonder
At a world you have seen somewhere before

Only you can see the men of wisdom,
Moving slowly on together
Sun shines through the stone but once a year
Ceremony now will start anew

And so you sit beneath the linden tree,
Staring ghostly at the altar,
And all the problems that perplex you so,
Dissolve and vanish deep into the water

No use asking what you are,
Or what you'll be a millisecond after
As you plunge back into laughter now,
Dancing and calling out your name

And still you sit beneath the linden tree
Staring ghostly at the altar,
And all the problems that perplex you so,
Dissolve and vanish deep into the water
