Vessels

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.

Honest and wild You know you is

Luminous and distant I can't say

And I recall your arms out Like a child

Begging for surrender as the black sky swelled with fire

You never know the blameless dreamless heart

Weak and weary guarded above all

And I recall a gaze that never rests

Upon the broken vessels you to fortunate to mend
