The Seeker
Credits: Lyrics by Scott J. Hunter.
Verse 1
I was a reed once, growing by the water
Before they cut me loose and made me cry
Now every breath I take turns into music
And every song I sing asks the same why
Chorus
There's a fire that finds me in the sleeping
There's a voice that calls me home before the dawn
Come and burn me, come and take me, keep on keeping
Carry me to where I've always been from
Verse 2
I went looking for you in the mirrors
All I ever found was my own face
But they say the seeker and the seeking
Are the same soul crying in the same place
Chorus
There's a fire that finds me in the sleeping
There's a voice that calls me home before the dawn
Come and burn me, come and take me, keep on keeping
Carry me to where I've always been from
Bridge
The tavern keeper poured me something holy
I drank it down and lost my name
Now I'm nobody and everybody
And loving you and loving you's the same
Outro (soft, fading)
Come and burn me
Come and take me
Carry me home
