[Verse 1]
Something jewelled slips away
'Round the next bend with a splash
Laughing at the hands I hold out
Only air within their grasp
All you can do is praise the razor
For the fineness of the slash
[Chorus]
Till the rose above the sky
Opens
And the light behind the sun
Takes all
[Verse 2]
Gutless arrogance and rage
Burn apart the best of tries
You carry the weight of inherited sorrow
From your first day till you die
Toward that hilltop where the road
Forever becomes one with the sky
[Chorus]
Till the rose above the sky
Opens
And the light behind the sun
Takes all
Something jewelled slips away
'Round the next bend with a splash
Laughing at the hands I hold out
Only air within their grasp
All you can do is praise the razor
For the fineness of the slash
[Chorus]
Till the rose above the sky
Opens
And the light behind the sun
Takes all
[Verse 2]
Gutless arrogance and rage
Burn apart the best of tries
You carry the weight of inherited sorrow
From your first day till you die
Toward that hilltop where the road
Forever becomes one with the sky
[Chorus]
Till the rose above the sky
Opens
And the light behind the sun
Takes all
