Danced with wind and danced with fire
Killed the truth and called the liar
Bleeding in its mystery when the moon began to fall
Dreamers are not all they seem,
Sleeping in her silent dream
She locks it all inside and hides it all away

China, China

Calling out to history
Is that the way it will always be?

China, China

Questions in my hand, and then
Answers gone till I don't know when

verse:
All you speak and all you hear
Hand that's strong and voice it's clear
An unforgotten memory when the moon begins to call
Called you right and called you wrong
Time, the shadow, sings your song
Don't lock it all inside and hide it all away

China, China 4x

    My Interpretation

    Well, it's Sunday, May 7, 2017 - I've been waiting five years to comment on this post.

    The song is about a girl that he's in love with but the girl is closed off to him (but not necessarily to others). She has some dark things in her history that I feel she wants to open up about, but can't - possibly to protect someone else that she loved in the past and can't let go of.

    The name "China" and the Great Wall around her heart is a bit of a stretch. But who knows what the song writer had in mind.

    There. I feel much better now after keeping this bottled up for the past five years.
