Lyrics
Painted Staircase
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Upon the edge you rest your head
In hope in love in light
And broken vows and heartless hawks
You'll paint oiled pictures of old times
You'll rest you'll rise in fields
Beyond the stairs you wonder there
In hope in loss in light
Infinite glory an endless story of war
You'll wake me up when it's over
We'll rest we'll rise in fields
We'll roam the painted staircase
We'll roam from end to end
Upon the edge
Upon the edge
