Quench

Believe in this asymmetry
The blossom darkens as it touches me
Half my life is worth less than the need to be more than you are
My blood is singing now

Soften the fire in the sky
Soften the fire in the sky

Like shades drawn across your eyes
A sense of form returns to the sun-blind soul
Who questions all they learned as the petals fell
The beggar man gives thanks for his empty bowl and
Larks sing to the tidal roar
And everybody must choose which they will ignore

Hold the whole world in your hand
Take possession of its majesty
Never have you been so far away from the light you desire
Become the open hand

Soften the fire in the sky
Soften the fire in the sky

Eyes wide facing from the light
Into the soft earth planting rows of hopeful seeds
I know that I am fooled as I taste the fruit
And as I bite down it is only me that bleeds
Can this be wisdom, to know the way
And take another path from it anyway

Soften the fire in the sky
Soften the fire in the sky

Eyes wide facing from the light
Into the soft earth planting rows of hopeful seeds
I know that I am fooled as I taste the fruit
And as I bite down it is only me that bleeds
Can this be wisdom, to know the way
And take another path from it anyway
