Gathering Tide

You're standing on your feet again
You know the why but not the when
You turn your head but there's no sun
And you can't see what they have done
But there is a secret that no one has told
You don't need the glitter, you'll still find the gold
In only a moment you'll finally be free from the cold
But there isn't time
There's nowhere to hide

Out of the gate you're running hard
And twice as fast, but half as far
Foundation's groaning with the weight
Will it be there? are you too late?
High overhead there's a break in the gray
All of your demons will burn in the day
You don't know where the world ends and your body begins
But there isn't time
There's nowhere to hide in your gathering tide

Your mind is on your side
You know where you're going and where you've been
You know that you can always start again
Climbing forever with no ceiling
And I'm not going to hide
Giving and giving until you're there
Holding until you can find clearer air
Then finally you will know what you'll be

High overhead there's a break in the gray
All of your demons will burn in the day
You don't know where the world ends and your body begins
But there isn't time
There's nowhere to hide in your gathering tide
