lyrics

Dry, dry, dry
Why ,why, why
Can’t even be quenched by tears

Truth and love
Locked above
This dark eclipse of lies and fear

Oh the faithless and the fearful
Make a cross of time and space
Their statues are all cracked
I can no longer brace
So let them fall
Knowing, it won’t be all

I hear gentle thunder
Awakening the sky
And all these clouds we’re under will break

In your dream
You were free
To dream
To be free

Open your eyes
Lift the veil
Be seen
To see for real.

Point out your God to me in a burning bush-
Holding fire and not consumed.
This promise and waste
Combine in bitter taste
Waiting for these clouds to burst
Oh the gravity of our thirst.

But I hear gentle thunder
A promise from the sky
That all these clouds we’re under will break

Oh love be a storm
Oh kindness be a tree
Hold fast and shelter me from the thought that I am alone.
