LYRICS:
After the fire, after the rain,[01] after the sacred kissed the profane - when you came and left again, such a captivating pain. After that night I left my comfort to find where your body lies, I’d wander upon this grave then fall… I’d fall inside.

I searched the clearing for that spark, hands sifted through the ash - knowing what we felt was real, but some delusions never pass.[02] So I took shelter in the woods with the naked shaking trees: Deciduous, fraternal twins, we’re both wilted, stem and leaf. Then the mist turned sleet turned snow; my senses shook numb, I've nothing show
but a rain-stained book that once contained my literary charades: Now blots of ink, archetypal shapes and shades bleed through each and every page.[03] And I ask myself: What’s the weight of my life on the scales of eternity?

We inherit the earth,[04] we inherit the war.
I inhabit the wound, I dwell in the harm.
Oh how far we fall:[05] We’re casualties of time.
Oh how far we fall: Begin to forgive existence.

Retreat back from reaching trees when a frigid shadow climbs inside of me - - - (that specter of recompense) - - -[06] It’s a sound I’ve heard ever since. Amidst the endless mortal strife and the constantly dying light[07] - the truth we felt from the start: “How can I hold myself together when everything falls apart?”

We inherit the earth, we inherit the war.I inhabit the wound, I dwell in the harm.

Oh how far we fall: We’re casualties of time.
Oh how far we fall: Forgive existence.

I wandered upon the altar of human invention,[08] an exhibition of erudition. Find me here, Son of Man.[09]

How far we fall…
