Resurrection

Resurrection

Sorrow creeping through the back door
Knives bringing all the guilt gore
Lives sand on a quick shore

And isn't it just easy tonight
To trade your dark for light
mystery for sight
intentions for right

Crime making callous hearts break
Mind steeling so you can take
Blind from all the people that you forsake

And isn't it just easy tonight
To trade your dark for light
mystery for sight
intentions for right
history for might
tension to divide

Oh, did the winter wash you out
Did the songbird make you doubt that you were young
Hey, does the wind go through your soul
Will you give up your control and start again

Sunrise breaking expectations
God-like bringing new sensations
Wide-eyed at this transfiguration
in me
