Lyrics Eclipse - Arkive

Eclipse

I’ve realised every person I see
Is hanging from perilous threads just like me
With every step, each moment becoming a memory
Another page in a book I won’t read
Every eye witnessing beauty
And every mouth drawing on the cup of life
To bear witness is to open your eyes
Waiting on the wings of an awakening
I can see that we’re outnumbered
A collision of contrition
And the consequences of leading a life we half formed
The black and the white
That spans the fabric of existence
Is yours to weave your thread through
Should you grow bored of the road to your horizon
Let your colours flare
Reaching out for the fire that’s burning beneath your ribs
And a hunger that drives a conviction in you
Paint a picture that shines with the
light that you thought was forgotten
Let your colours flare
Feeling them frantically searching for an escape
This tempest it rages inside of us
And I’ll turn the pages of the books I won’t read
Every eye witnessing beauty
And every mouth drawing on the cup of life
To bear witness is to open your eyes
It’s the edge of the mirror, a glimpse in the night
A match to the pyre, and knowing you’re right
Letting this caution float free on the breeze
Refusing to live a life down on my knees
Reaching out for the fire that’s burning beneath your ribs
And a hunger that drives a conviction in you
Paint a picture that shines with the
light that you thought was forgotten
Let your colours flare
Feeling them frantically searching for an escape
This tempest it rages inside of us
Every eye witnessing beauty
Every eye witnessing beauty
