this glass embrace - there is nothing buried that will not be raised lyrics

[verse 1]
you faced the devil in the wilderness for forty days
if i withstood for forty seconds that would be something
among the angels and the animals the throne and crown forsake
while i still falter, i still stumble in your wake

[chorus]
why weren’t you the hurricane, why not the fire?
why aren’t you the fractured earth, something i can’t ignore?
your voice is shrouded in the stillness
a whisper lost within the sound
why do i fight so hard to hear you
when you are closer, closer to me than myself?

[verse 2]
this absent faith has less of dying than of dying down
not blood and breaking but a sinking slow into the ground
who could have known these ropes and cables
that i mistook for ties that bind
were but a lifeline cast to save my drowning pride?
i once could see but now am blind

[chorus]
why weren’t you the hurricane, why not the fire?
why aren’t you the fractured earth, something i can’t ignore?
your voice is shrouded in the stillness
a whisper lost within the sound
why do i fight so hard to hear you
when you are closer, closer to me than myself?

[interlude]

[chorus]
why weren’t you the hurricane, why not the fire?
why aren’t you the fractured earth, something i can’t ignore?
your voice is shrouded in the stillness
a whisper lost within the sound
why do i fight so hard to hear you
when you are closer, when you are closer now?
