So i will pave this road 'till glory
sets our broken spirits free
From every cross-soaked rain pours endless rain
with tears no eyes should see
but they could fill our highest ocean
and the rivers in between
With every blade that flowers must scrold and drown
with love our cruelest sea
[Chorus]
So with a wonder and a wild desire
I will crawl from under every weight
With a wonder and a wild desire
Bless the day it was I shared your name
Yesterday forever speaks your grave
Hail the shower from the broadside
To the heavens down below
Draw one last breath from your famine ship
Sink the hunger in us all
Shake the hand that speaks of freedom
Kiss hate one final bow
Till each twilight falls
Then rests till dawn and tomorrow's
never sleep
(Chorus)
And of the fool we shall not mention
That depraves the cries of youth
Drag not your strength from government
But from the voices they abuse
(Chorus)
Only time will tell
When this rain of Hell
Shall wither in defeat
Separate the bread they forgot to share
To the mouths still left to feed
Though this body ached then disappeared
Into the ground now seeds
He said I, I'll always comfort thee
So I will pave this road till glory
Watch as our broken spirit's soul
Resonate with perfect reason
Shut life's last gloomy door
(Chorus)
