I shape the hills (Remastered)

50 BPM, folk, contemporary singer songwriter, coarse distinctive bass male vocals, slow spoken talk, acoustic guitar, piano, orchestral strings, Key or E minor

Change of pace. Working on something I hope is special for May.

I shape the hills

I shape the hills  
System is broken  
Surviving on pills  
Thankful to God

Beast within howls  
Angel is restless  
No regrets allowed

Someone will use  
What I couldn't be  
Heart endures pain  
Without intimacy

She'll walk the path  
Understand my words  
Will torn in half  
Freedom in between

For a moment  
Lives intertwine

Endless stillness  
Open doorway wide

Born to another  
Finish what I couldn't

I sense their arrival  
They will observe

That is the yearning  
This is the pull

Can't shape the hills  
System is broken  
Living on pills  
Grateful to God

Page too bare  
Ink too light  
Day wouldn't write  
Night's secrets remain

But I sense arrival  
And they will observe

This is longing  
This is the pull

I shape the hills  
System is broken  
Living on pills  
Grateful to God

Sailed like a swan  
Sank like stone  
Time has moved  
Beyond laughter's echo

I shape the hills  
System is broken  
Living on pills  
Grateful to God  
[End-acoustic guitar music]
