lyrics

FALL

A rhythm comes and makes a start
I pitch a thought that fills my heart
A rhythm comes and forms a bay
A melody’s the boat with which I play

A stranger’s knocking on my door
To show me what I was before
A still blue light just out of sight
But if I get too near it disappears

So are you ready now to call?
Are you willing to fall into this boundless sea?

But poles apart to roles devout
We flaunt our gleaming armour bright
But rusted fast this hollowness and stench
Beneath our visors safe
The nations retch in gibbering clash

And the world is doused in flaming red
Across their palms, upon their heads
Boot trodden sands against the cross
Upon a young man writhing in the dock

Finding a name for you
Writing a song that's new
Hoping our lives will meet in this darkness
Making a vow that’s new
I'm marking my debt to you
Watching the tides race out
As it fades into the blue
My heart beats loud for you

Gentle, loving, straight and true
To heal this crooked world inside of you
So softly, softly, softly spoken
A word of love that heals the broken
And through the storms cathedral light
Is coursing through my heart tonight
And through the silence, through the stone
A mind in doubt will leave its throne
