Fairy Paradise lyrics

He draws near the periphery 
In disbelief on delivery 
Came child from the deep inferno 
Crusty head of dead volcano 
Heartless crow with brittle beak 
Wooden leg too schocked to speak 
Lilac dust of a woman's hair 
A wooden cross a paper prayer 
A stone where her body lay 
A stack of feathers a pile of hay 
A mushroom for an eye ball 
A mustache from the snow fall 
Worms weave a ring where fairies square dance 
Queens and kings fairies weave wigs with eyelash 
Trance music makes the fairies dance 
From the caves of snail shells 
Echoes the mutter medieval spells 
Mystery flows her wicked river 
Of thorn and blade and silver sliver 
Bending 'round the clover fields 
Their sapling stems don't break but yield 
Her pain inflicts no arguments 
Must learn to sway and un-arrange 
As earth she makes her final passage 
After humans long have ravaged 

Vanished with all maps for motion 
Upward angels last devotion 
One by one escort us home 
To leave the elementals free to roam 
To bathe in the last of ocean's foam 
To beach comb the nuclear debris 
Our plastic toys and our metal trees 
On the perfect day you'll find the breeze 
Once blew the pollen the feet of bees 
Now cry the stars when upon the earth 
Their gaze might rest a nostalgic burst 
A lament be heard through all the cosmos 
Of the dying planet with fallen foes
