Datura – Maneto lyrics

Maneto, ya hey
Sing forth thy praise
Darkness be broken for light of new days
My silence be found with convictions
That compel as dawn with her crescent reinforces no sound
You could not be there

Paint a shield around my heart
For the winter's wind has let me know
That I'm not blind
So I will try

Through a doorway
It's been told
That the stillness brings enlightenment
I'm not blind
So I will try

But that of this heart and that of this mind
Covets its darkness
This chief will not bind
One sits oh so still
To stare at a shadow
If only to hear
To wander through branches whose roots feed on you

Mind your protector
Vessel of choice
Whose reflection in water
Stares back with no voice
Designs, divides, ultimately decides
Most roots of all evil
Will be found in you

Paint a shield around my heart
For the winter's wind has let me know
That I'm not blind
So I will try

Through a doorway
It's been told
That the stillness brings enlightenment
I'm not blind
So I will shine
