Fly and touch the sun

Although Xavier has prayed that life giving waters may rain  
Down on the souls of men to cure them of their ways.  
And as the night turns into day will the sun illuminate your way,  
Or will your nightmares come home to stay.  
Xavier’s love lies in chains.

The snow still falls in flakes  
The reins around a horse’s throat  
Turn into a lake

And people so familiar, their words are in my mind
