Lyrics The Vigil - Proto-Kaw

The Vigil

I stand next to the window
I hover by the door
I play each second for it’s maximum
And then find out what it’s for
I’m in the competition now
The duration of the game
I’ll bear no repetition
No two are quite the same
There’s a love so amazing
It’s a life that turns the tide
This elusive thing we’re chasing
Is the one to stand beside
I’ve got some intuition
The inspiration comes and goes
But it all pales in comparison
To this truth which I propose
We were never alone, for it’s chiseled in stone
There’s a place in the heart that reveals it
We can run for a time, but the mountain we climb
Is a door that is closed — something seals it til'
We’re standing outside — wanting in
There’s a love so amazing
It’s a life that turns the tide
This elusive thing we’re chasing
Is the one to stand beside
