Lyrics

Wrote down a name
One hyperactive inkling
The page comes alive
revealing shadows that bind
and they scream
to let us be

All the voices i've controlled
and all the hands that reach for stone
It's in the palettes that i bleed
through the shades of humanity

Surrender to her

All the channels i've bestowed
and all the energy that flows
One life of sacrifice
For a touch from the divine

The Sun comes up behind us
and then quickly recedes
In the pathways it has given
Potent and effortless-
ly she's allowed to thrive
upon our sacrifice
This ultimate power that we seek
is it not enough to simply believe
We must strive, sacrifice so much time
Just to feel alive

The efforts of our journey
The strides in our path
work fingers into bones and until our minds snap
For a vessel of a presence as ancient as the wind
Birthing curiosity with the colors that we bend
No more compromise you will see
Behind these eyes
