lyrics

[VERSE 1]
Gifts of everburning fire, carried forward by children to dreams,
Or by madmen, to nonsense and disaster-
We can see it all undone, but it won't be destroyed,
The skies will crack with laughter

Ash and cinder softly floating down

[CHORUS 1]
Look away, to beyond where the eye
Ever could, through a tear in the sky
Opened up, and through the blackened atmosphere we will rise

[VERSE 2]
I can't wish it all away, I can only relive it again,
Hurtling downward, evermore and ever faster,
Like the thrumming of a song, twisted up in a chord
Of nonsense and disaster

In deafened ears, the dissonance resounds

[CHORUS 2]
Look away, to beyond where the eye
Ever could, through a tear in the sky
Opened up, and through the blackened atmosphere we will rise
To the void, through the gulf ever wide,
From the Me, to the You, We the spied
Silhouettes approaching through the cloudless, clear other side

[BRIDGE]
Through the bombs in the air, through the days of despair,
And the place in our hearts we're forbidden to share,
The missiles careen, skywriting a scream,
It ain't the end of the world, but you can see it from there
They will blow it apart, we will be released,
And build anew what they've mangled, piece by piece,
Don't have to die on our feet, or live on our knees-
It's almost in reach

[CHORUS 2]
