We Loyal - Arch of Glass lyrics

rate me

Once we chose in fatigue

To live a life underwater

Where the ocean’s a murmur

And all of the shades are turquoise

We broke the hourglass

When thirst was forgotten

And as the decades passed

We all turned into stone

But I break the spell walling off our home

From the fury inside our hearts

And every point of view is falling into place now

That I cross the arch of glass

Beyond the mirror's sight

A picture in fragments

Nothing to come without small warnings

Nothing to come that we can’t let in

I see my life in a rush

Through alabaster veins

I lie awake I won’t miss my morning

I lie awake now I burn within

So I break the spell walling off our home

From the fury inside our hearts

And every point of view is falling into place now

That I cross the arch of glass

Oh will I be too tamed for all the wilderness around my opened body

The teeth marks on my spine counting every day I am standing upright

The sparks beneath my bluish lids get me to browse through all the unsunken treasures

And if this fever breaks I want to be carried home with flowers in my mouth
