lyrics

A feeling of purpose approaches as the sun sets tonight
With the night came clarity, and with it came new life
The turning of new leaf, meaning I’d been searching for
Sinking in my selfish grief, I was merely lost before

Twas a setting fire in the sky
When you came weeping from the womb
Crying to the moon and stars
Was love I thought I knew

(Chorus)
My heart unhardened
Complete catharsis
My son, I’ll guide you
As you have guided me too

From her womb she bore you
And from her bosom you grew
The thing I love most in this world
Resulted in you

Last night I had a vision of blinding light
A message in the wax appeared
Melting from a setting sky
In it you were my candle
And I your acolyte

(Chorus)

This album being played over the PA system at the museum where Salvador Dali's "The Persistence of Memory" is housed is what caused the faces of the clocks in the painting to melt. meeko
