lyrics

And so we circle right back to this question
Uncertain now as we were at the start
Where do we go to find our shelter?
How to repair this broken heart?
What do we make of all our failings
To drive our flag into the Earth?
How do we bear the weight of being
The sum of every death and birth?

So far as sound and vision have revealed it
No solid rock on which to stand
Appears that doesn't crack and crumble
Dissolved into these shifting sands
Which through the hourglass are falling
To bury all we've said and done
Can you show me something to believe in?
Or do we lose it all before we have begun

A diamond eye eclipse enshrouds in bleeding moonbeams
(Breaking waves of weary questioning provide the)
Fuel the fire, shedding sparks of revelation
(Taking heart we touch the timeless higher vision)
Enter second stage, the sunlight dancing, burning
(Through the scars of the impermanent and dying)
Leaving only love that spans the emptiness
Raise your voice, be counted, we will keep on trying

And if the shadows take their toll
This hunger of the soul
A pain so deep, immense and unforgiving
Don't lose sight the embers glow
There's a truth as pure as snow
Unstained, enshrined in everything that's living
Here, where time and will collide
It's here that we decide
The course we'll take amidst this endless motion
Fall apart and fade away
Or flow into the day
To find we're waves within a boundless ocean

The most that we can say is that we can't say anything
The words were never writ that could, themselves, resolve our suffering
But daring still, we go on drifting in the consoling warmth of grace
With the courage to encompass all that comes in our embrace

We lay down all our fantasies with a smile on our face
We hold fast to hope and kindness, though all else may be erased
And through the cracks in all we know, we catch a glimpse of endless space

We rest awhile and then we take our place
We rest awhile and rejoin the human race

In this never-ending testament
We rebuild our broken instruments
And sing of joy and mercy as we go from here
We harmonize the dissonance
Reshape our shattered innocence
With patience as our polestar
We will go
