Archaeo

Collective courses travelled
Sojourn deep into your soul
Digging up ruins of yesterday's desires
And what did you bring back
A tiny trace of who you once were
What does your spark say
A whisper all alone

And when the insurrection comes
Tear it out of the catacombs of your chest
'Cause there'll be no time when we open the walls wide
Will you be lying in the corner
Or donning those battered wings again
Will you rise or fall or remain here lost in time

Another chapter written
Bleeding hearts and empty words
Unfulfilled wishes, bury them again
Until you look back
Sporting marks from ten more years
Wearing the lenses of a desperate, longing plea

And when the insurrection comes
Tear it out of the catacombs of your chest
'Cause there'll be no time when we open the walls wide
Will you be lying in the corner
Or donning those battered wings again
Will you rise or fall or remain here lost in time

If the world's out of reach, can we still reclaim it
If there's no hope for peace, can we still abate it
If the words lose meaning, can we still believe it
If we can't take this back, can we still redeem it

It's not hard to set aside our consciousness and lose track of time
These fragile suppositions will collide with repercussions
And we'll mistake coincidences with the strangest twists of fate
Propelling us towards a destiny we can't see
Is that all we'll be
