luke brindley - crack of light lyrics
is that the sound of dancers at the wedding feast
or soldiers marching in the city street?
even the cries of joy and weeping sound the same
every whisper of wisdom gets drowned out
by the relentless modern screaming sound
can you still hear your true name?
i need a comp-ss – i need a center
i’ve got vertigo tonight
i was born in darkness
looking for a crack of light
my hands are raw from feeling my way along the walls
knees are busted from breaking my fall
in a world where love and mercy make no sense
suddenly there’s this tiny hand in mine
and i’m leading the way though i’m nearly blind
and can barely see to take the next step
there’s a faint glimmer up ahead
like sunlight glinting off the edge of a knife
i was born in darkness
looking for a crack of light
so let the fire of understanding burn off the haze of superst-tion
the pruning sword of truth cut back these apparitions
like the night gives way to the dawn
i hear echoes of a song from long before
maybe older than we’ve had these human forms
and it keeps me pressing on – pressing on
through this land beneath the shadow of death
through noonday dark as midnight
i was born in darkness…
toward a peace i might never find
like some ever-receding horizon line
i was born in darkness
looking for a crack of light
i was born in darkness
looking for a crack of light
