lyrics

The world is quieter from all the way up here
The shifting skin of all the things that loom big when you’re near
Before I never saw the laws that governed all these monstrous forms
Now the cosmic choreography’s made clear

The shadows grow longer as the sun retreats
My head is heavy and my body’s weak

But the night will not last forever
And the stars remember the day
The fire we preserve until morning
Is what keeps us alive until we can again find our way

The world was louder then, still ringing in my ear
But all I had for giving back were silence, doubt and fear
In turn I was concerned with how to learn the words and make them heard
And so I missed what I still had to hear

And I tried to say I couldn’t last so long
Devoid of what I needed to belong

And at last I know how to set it all aside
I am past the small hours of the night
From the land I’m off into bottomless blue sky
Now I stand in golden morning light
