Lyrics
Despite The Shell
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.
Standing here, where the waters concede with a bow to
Drying land, setting to a cube that's faded through
But why, despite the rusted outer shell towering
I can't look away
A new day's sun and I'm awake,
I breath in
Calmed by new chances I await, and I breathe it in
Starved and curious I stare in hunger, help me
Turn until you reveal what's kept inside
Show the answers, shame the seven wonders
Help me believe
A new day's sun and I'm awake
I breath in
All that I know changes shape, and I breathe it in
Holding hope, just like a child, alone
Searching, I'm begging, please turn around, I need you
Struggling, take me there, please turn around
I need you, know letting go, do what you will and
You turned around, now I see you
Armed with wings of light
The confort you cast over me
Then silence a beating heart
And eyes that you have opened wide
I climbed down from walls that I embraced, alone now
Tired now, closer, never looking back
Found calm in this saving grace, now hopeful
Listening closely, never looking back
Standing where misguided reason led me to begin
Ever closer to the answers left at hand
Despite the vague attempt of my illiusions
I can look ahead
