Monk On a Rope

In an endless night i share my voice with all those whitewashed walls
Fall on my knees and clasp my hands to pray
My heart is aching as if i'd had never felt its beats before
And at a noise i raise my wounded eyes

I see you rising in the sun
I see you rising in the sun

How could i've ever thought that something'd come to rescue me
How could i ever thought of anything at all
Inside this empty home's no further place for someone else
It's always over when it seems to start again

I see you rising in the sun
I see you rising in the sun

No one's allowed to follow
No one can ever take you down
No one's allowed to touch you
No one can ever presume your crown

In an endless night i share my voice with all those whitewashed walls
Renunciation's a kind of dreaming it away
And as the morning grows i also grow and i'm satisfied
To feel the certainty to be free

I see you rising in the sun
I see you rising in the sun
