glass hammer - ember without name lyrics
i shut my eyes to see the distant years
before i was before the first breath
to days when we walked in the brilliant light
before the fall before first death
i dare not look too long—a secret guarded well
i’ve never seen this place but been here many times
i know here i belong but danger here does dwell
an old familiar face a million mirrored lines
swimming, dimming, shadows, fear grows
drowning, crowning, dark skies, birth cries
we weren’t meant to see
i wasn’t meant to see the inner weave of me
but deep within the dark
sometimes we catch a spark
a silver glow as warm as angels
would fill out souls like mead from eden
and in this dream i’m so close yet
to see it’s not a dream my eyes begin to burn
a moth drawn to the flame to ashes add a speck
the memories of all who here have had their turn
in strobes and strokes and strikes like noose connects to neck
swimming, dimming, shadows, fear grows
drowning, crowning, dark skies, birth cries
we weren’t meant to see
but deep within the dark
sometimes we catch a spark
a silver glow as old as angels
would blind us all like snow from everest
and in this dream i’m far too close
we weren’t meant to see the inner weave of things
no, i can’t tell you when we first met
possibly before we were born
as fragments on a thread that binds us all
but hot or cold we touch
and black and white we touch
man and woman touch
spare and fire touch
and after all i’m not a snail at all
but an ember of a raging fire!
hot or cold we touch
and black and white we touch
man and woman touch
spare and fire touch
ember without name
rising from the flame
free from where i came
i’ve burned down history’s stage
i’ve cooled through the age
i melt into the page
a voice calls through the haze
“you must rejoin the blaze!”
dimming while swimming
this spark astride an uphill blast
and though an avalanche might fall
i must rejoin the blaze
carried along on a song sung in fire
float in the chords miss the words of the choir
close to a name in the flame i’ve been drawn to
tell me my name in the flame!
tell me my name in the flame!
tell me my name in the flame!
