CORRECTAR LA LETRA
Letra : First Father
[Garrett Russell]
Do you remember when I said
You'd never feel the sting of death? [01]
But now I'm waiting where you left
Beside that snow-kissed clearing [02]
I pressed a seed through that frozen fleece
The earth embraced you in the ground
No invention of my mind
Will ever compose a melody so profound
I'm a priest afraid to pray [03]
Terrified at what the silence couldn't say
Tongue tethered to the skeptic beating in my chest
We're no longer quite ourselves
Nor reflections of someone else
Lover, do you feel that tension
As we drift between silence and eternity?
Death is the road, road to awe [04]
I stood atop the world
Its asymmetry laid bare in front of me:
Thanatophobic societies taking life to mourn their tragedies
[Garrett Russell]
I feared this world would never change
But you steady your resolve anyway
Let's set the pen against the sword [05]
How orphans long for peace before they learn to love the war
Perhaps it's our language [06]
Perhaps we are incomplete
Words like shadows to what we see
Faint flickerings across the cavern in our minds [07]
[Thomas Freckleton]
Candles in the dark [08]
Defiant to the night
[Garrett Russell]
"You pulled me through time" [09]
Through the edgeless night [10]
I learned to love as you learned to die
I'll begin to feel again and finish the chapter you couldn't write
[Thomas Freckleton & Garrett Russell]
Candles in the dark
Defiant to the night, defiant to the shadow
You pull me through time, through the edgeless night
I learned to love as you learned to die [11]
Do you remember when I said
