You Became I |
| I once knew that everything around me leapt for you |
| And I spoke with fiery tongue of heavens fall and of your kingdom come |
| The words I was saying were leaving with ease but countered the actions that |
| follow my feet |
| Oh the seduction of meaningless things |
| I’ve been eating from gravesides |
| Swearing oaths to the fairest of moons |
| Trading masters by firelight |
| And sleeping in their tombs |
| All creation waits — Aching for the day |
| (Earth, the sky, and savage tide will vanish under heavens rise — falling, |
| fading) |
| There is no escape — From what the author fates |
| (Greater souls than we conceive — Concern themselves with our retreat) |
| I’ve been drifting in my words |
| I’ve been shifting my affection to whatever love may call my name |
| Babel were your men so dim |
| To build their gods and worship them |
| Erect escape in increments |
| And place their faith in intellect |
| Now we’ve been weeping at gravesides |
| Swearing hope is an island away |
| Just a spark for the firelight |
| To keep despair at bay |
| My brothers, we are foolish |
| If this is how we think we can exist, there is no hope |
| We are all hopeless, we are broken |
| No tower built could ever save our souls |
| There is no hope, there is no |
| All creation waits |
| Aching for the day |
| (Falling, fading) |
| There is no escape |
| From what the author fates |
| (Falling, fading) |
| We’ve been living in shadows |
| Soon exposed to the light |
| Our existence will rupture |
| When the maker arrives |
| Every vanity shattered |
| Every galaxy frayed |
| We will suffer no longer |
| In these delicate frames |
| But no man knows the season or the time |
| And fault will find us all in guilty lives |
| And only mercy can a hope provide |
| Return, Repent |
| Before deep heaven falls upon our heads |
