Purgatorio Lyrics

When we are, death is not come

When death is come, we are not

In dreams we drift away

Until they come alive to paint the day

The sovereign one will overcome frivolities of everyday deeds

But what man could ever live up to such a visage and its needs

Now kids, gather 'round

Both noble and broke and bound

Come quietly to the ground

And listen rapt to the voice of safe and sound

Hey now, hey now

Teacher, can you tell me how to be a version of myself?

Hey now, hey now

I said I want that no one knows me, though I want the notice

Hey now, hey now

Teacher, how am I to be expressive when I'm ordered to receive?

Hey now, hey now

The moral never rage across the engage of us for the Cross

On these plains there is a burning chateau

The road is paved with the cries from the ones in the know

"It must be found," say both beau and hoe

"We owe the show our mournful woe"

The "Nevermore" crow, perched o'er the meadow, beguiled from far long ago

Sat aglow 'neath the echoes of cries from the hearts they dropped down below

Welcome, you can hear her

Her cries' a bit clearer

If you're coming nearer

In our halls of mirror the shallow's severer

Hey now, hey now

Teacher, I am weary of this quaint, forgotten lore

Hey now, hey now

Eagerly I wish the morrow to surcease the sorrow

Hey now, hey now

While, at last, near I was napping, I was suddenly awoke

Hey now, hey now

Presently, my soul grows stronger, hesitating no longer

Thus much let me hereby implore:

You are not wrong; I've dreamt a dream none ever dared before

They followed the lea

And got to the sea

And there made their plea

Release us from wanting and let us be free

Hey now, hey now

It's easy to embrace the hopelessness when things seem out of reach

Hey now, hey now

It's always just a matter of time for everything to turn out right

Hey now, hey now

It's all about the things we think of and our wish to come around

Hey now, hey now

It's all about what we lower from our dreams and shoulders to the ground
