Underneath the waters blue
Yet above the Hellish Realm
There is something waiting for you
There's a guy outside your door
With a pickaxe and a grin like the moon
He's waiting for you
I am the man behind the legend
I am the child of your generation
I've come to see, Mr. Longnose
If you'll speak to me
About the many places you've been,
The great explorer
Give me a reason not to see
What I've left behind
Give me a way to let it be
The world alone
I'm glad you care for what I've done,
But I'm awfully tired now
Would you care to stay here overnight
So we can talk in the morning?
Give me a to rest so I can sleep
Through the night
Give me a map
So I can explore
Looking out of the bedroom window
I watch the sun set over the hill
A purple light briefly sends me home
When I travelled here
I walked, I ran, I swam
As the night cascades
My thoughts transcend
When I awoke, I watched him through the window
He was cleaning his old iron boots
Which he had not worn for a while
When he was done, he took me out for breakfast
I ordered a ham and cheese omelet
He got three pancakes
As we ate he asked me, "Why are you here?"
I told him the purpose of my journey
And asked my plea:
Give me a to rest so I can sleep
Through the night
Give me a map
So I can explore

That evening, we left on horseback
He said he was taking me to my destiny
I haven't felt like this in a very long time
Not since my teacher, Mr. Eagle
We stopped to rest around midnight
We tied the horses to a pole
We slept inside an abandoned old shack
The roof was falling down
So we saw the stars
He spoke some words and began to sing:
"I once was green, as green as grass
But one life left mine far to fast
And now I'm red, as red as blood,
and dead as day at night."
This is a song that I sing at night
When I can't sleep
It's about a friend I had
A long, long time ago...
The words are simple, and hard to forget
But filled with meaning in every way
Please sing with me tonight
Let's live the legend
I once was green, as green as grass
But one life left mine far to fast
And now I'm red, as red as blood,
and dead as day at night
And now, a rumbling from below!

IV. The Sound of Life

I look out to see sun hit the ground
Such a moment can never be found
I look back, it's time to head home
I listen to the sweet sound of life
The sweet sound of life
It's sharp as a knife
It holds me tight
Holding back my tears of joy
Sacred silence I will employ
Speak to Master when it is done
And live with emptiness none
Working two years in a cake bakery
In a flower shop, then I worked three
Four months in a windowless room
Setting up speakers to play the sound of life
The sweet sound of life
It's sharp as a knife
It holds me tight
