choir boy - gathering swans lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
who am i to be mourning
my simple mysteries unfurled
when i have the privilege to be
gathering swans for the new world

[pre+chorus]
like angels we’ll fly
gliding on
and trumpets will sigh
solemn as the ashes rise

[chorus]
burn down the gallery
god’s greatest gag of suffering
could there be happiness at least?
or could murder be mercy?

[verse 2]
now i hear the children laughing
amidst the feathers they will twirl
snowy white in the springtime
gathering swans for the new world

[pre+chorus]
the years will fly by
diving on
and mothers will cry
solemn as the ashes rise

[chorus]
burn down the gallery
god’s greatest gag of suffering
could there be happiness at least?
or could murder be mercy?
in fifty years we’ll see
maybe we’ll have a family
our children will dance and laugh and sing
baby, happy anniversary
