lyrics

Oh to the one who was lifted,
how did you make it to the light?
Did you find a fountain,
the highest mountain
without your sight?

And did your ears have to strain
to hear the disdained sound of heights?
Not a bird does fall without him knowing
It may be holy
to fall ourselves
with all our pride
wIth all our pride

Oh to the one who is falling
Oh baby darling, we are your friend
And down on the ground you will find
we are your kind, we lost our fight.

Our hands are shot are feet gone,
we've desperately run
from all we've done.
But now we see that the battle lost
is just as worthy
as the battle won
for here we're one
for here we're one

Oh to the one who sings out
your mystical words have saved my doubt.
So please don't stop your singing
You are my songbird
You are my beat.

For all the smiles that seek me
they are my courage, it's what I keep.
For all the truth you behold
It must be retold,
for it is gold
unto my soul
unto my soul
