May 2012

This place is like a cage
my vision clouded by bars
stuck again in this stage
eyes fixed on the stars
and there you are

Suspended here in time and space
We pass the lonely nights away
We'll disappear without a trace
into the words you do not say
but here we are

These chains were meant to break
These bonds were built to last
but faith just will not wake
though I'm pounding on the glass
and there you are
but it's so far

We can sail across the distance
wade through the words left unsaid
stand against their resistance
and wake hope from the dead
and here we are
It's not too far
