From the recording Absence Of Light
Lyrics
We know the sun on the outside
Is just the moon on the inside
And the shadows that lurk in the corner
Is trauma evading the flames
Only waiting for rescue
As the building that burns down around you
Is fuel for the trail that you blaze
And in the blink of an eye you’ve arrived
At the end of the line
Just to find the seasons flow
Back to the river
All in the time it took to realise
It was there all the time
Now protest the raging heart
All hail the sinner
Cut a dusty trail through a desert highway
Shake out the rocks from your boots and bags
Empty your words out
Face down that sorrow
Like a feeling you can’t name
From the start of forever
Like the song in your heart, like the summer
It always reminds you of home
Just a child in the ether
In a bubble of safety and soothing
But always you sense it alone
And in the blink of an eye you’ve arrived
At the end of the line
Just to find the seasons flow
Back to the river
All in the time it took to realise
It was there all the time
Now protest the raging heart
All hail the sinner
Cut a dusty trail through a desert highway
Shake out the rocks from your boots and bags
Empty your words out
Face down that sorrow
And the closer you are to Midnight
You’re nearly in sight of a morning bathed in light
Washing the sinner
And in the darkness just before dawn
There’s a promise of flight to a new tomorrow
And love to all of you sinners
