Kris Drever - Allegory lyrics

rate me

Sudden move in the stars

Whenever I look to the skies I can get lost

Stand in a mirror and know that

I am a fragment of something greater than I

Specks of dust in a moonbeam gathering shape and potent

Of greatness waiting to light

Even the wind in the trees is the allegory

Everything that is and ever will be

Is the allegory

We can stand with both feet firmly on the ground

And let our heads get lost so thoroughly in the clouds

Conjure up visions of power and romance

Of destinies changed in the twinkle of an eye

Stumble and fall, always searching

Desperate to gain some reason in this life

Even the wind in the trees is the allegory

Everything that is and ever will be

This is the allegory

I see the noon and the noon sees me

The moon looks down on what I long to be

There's grace in the heart and grace in the hall

The Grace of God is over us all

Sudden move in the stars

Whenever I look to the skies I can get lost

Sweat in this foundry of lies

Hammer my soul until it looks something more like me

Forge a chain that binds us like slaves

Into a dark and omninous dream

Even the wind in the trees is the allegory

Everything that is and ever will be

This the allegory

Even the wind in the trees is the allegory
