An early warning

Forging notes that never die

The air now rings with dissonant sound

Screaming our last prayer

For this cross that we bare grows much heavier

Holding us down when we fall from our feet



As the storms of time subside

The coals from past life will fuel this fire

Dreams carry us on to believe

And die for the things we had hoped for

The arrival sets us free



A killing season

Blinding words obscuring the plain

Poisoning the lips of the newborn in vain

Distant signs of light

Deliver us from the night we were drowning

But now we've been washed

Onward to a new shore



As the storms of time subside

The coals from past life will fuel this fire

Dreams carry us on to believe

And die for the things we had hoped for

The arrival sets us free

Dreams carry us on to believe

And die for the things we had hoped for

The arrival sets us free



They call this reason

Different views through different eyes

If you speak the truth why do I see lies

Distant signs of light

Will smooth these rough seas that we ride

We were drowning

But now we've been washed

Onward to a new shore

Over and over and over
