lyrics

Wandered the globe around,
But never seen such grace,
Got cut off my guard,
To contemplate and stay.

Marble dignity,
Not carved but born from stone,
In a pale cold hour,
Moments before the dawn.

With little lamp I walk
Through majestic nave
In astonishing calm,
That echoes in my steps.

In coma we dwell,
Away from light,
Awake in its presence,
Blind.

Faces of ivory,
On ever-present mass,
But hearts are beating,
In post-organic chests.

The sleep of sanity,
A twisted, thrilling plan,
Made by unknown,
A seed you keep in hand.

And altar of granite,
Upon which the look,
And voices that entreat you,
Wield your faith and stay.

The sun has risen,
Sequence activates,
Now I realize,
It has always been this way.

Now I’m one of them,
A column in the light,
The forest of cathedral,
In never ending growth.

Awaiting the architect.
