| Jesse, tell me what its like
|
| when the earth stops turning?
|
| Where do you go
|
| when stars drop like snow,
|
| and leave you a dark and infinite sky?
|
| Can you see the light of day?
|
| Is there a window in there?
|
| Does it hurt when you’re alone?
|
| Do you see his lifeless face
|
| everywhere that you turn?
|
| Jesse says Jerusalem has fallen,
|
| what I held eternal just crumbled away
|
| and though my days are a silhouette,
|
| I know that beyond the rubble,
|
| the boundless sea awaits.
|
| Somewhere out there in the universe,
|
| lie the answers for which we search.
|
| How do you move on
|
| when your love won’t return,
|
| and make you forget we are oh so small?
|
| Jesse says Jerusalem has fallen,
|
| what I held eternal just crumbled away
|
| and though my days are a silhouette,
|
| I know that beyond the rubble,
|
| the boundless sea awaits.
|
| Jesse’s lost the eyes
|
| that he held as a child.
|
| No, he’s not afraid.
|
| His courage gets me down. |
