So much silence stretching above me
Around me too
Has it deafened me
Has it closed my ears
Has the silence itself brought about this rapture
Between silence and sound
Between the cry and the cull
If man raises one voice
I'll raise two then
One for loss
One for losing
One for death
And one for birth
He may hang bloody torn on this tree of moss
Though my grimace will cut my grin
I'll rise triumphant
I'll rise triumphing
You won't catch me
I fly unseen through the wind of the worlds
Missiles cut space spearing the starlight
Masking the moon
Wide of the march
Give me two reasons to stay here
Lost light, lost love
Smudge the tracks and smother the traces
Of the fires of your fear
Around me too
Has it deafened me
Has it closed my ears
Has the silence itself brought about this rapture
Between silence and sound
Between the cry and the cull
If man raises one voice
I'll raise two then
One for loss
One for losing
One for death
And one for birth
He may hang bloody torn on this tree of moss
Though my grimace will cut my grin
I'll rise triumphant
I'll rise triumphing
You won't catch me
I fly unseen through the wind of the worlds
Missiles cut space spearing the starlight
Masking the moon
Wide of the march
Give me two reasons to stay here
Lost light, lost love
Smudge the tracks and smother the traces
Of the fires of your fear
