Album: The Ghost You Gave To Me (2011)

The Barrier

I don?t know your name
Did I dream you tonight?
Did I draw the heavens down?
Drape my arms around
An angel in flight?
Looking like you love me still
As you kill me goodbye
As you?re parachuting to the ground
Watching me go down
Abandoned in flight
You left me to die
Somehow the chiming of shadows
Reminds me of you
The haunted and hollow
The light passing through
The sound of your sorrow
On the echoes of blue
Down a wind water tunnel
Like the turn of a screw
Doing all that you can do
To be the wall I?m walking through
Whispers in the dark
Can I steal you tonight?
And from the wreckage piled high
We?ll climb back to the sky
Leap from the ledge
For the faith we can fly
So come on?
Reanimate angel
Break from your cage
Witness the prophecy
Sprung from the page
The moon in your marrow
The smoke on your skin
The mask in the mirror
The monster within
But the barrier is thin
And the room begins to spin
Don?t you know that
The war has blown over?
We weathered the storm
The grass has grown over
The graves that we mourn
Now the brightness is teeming
The chains slip away
The wolf in the wool
Is no longer at bay
The portal is open
The walls disappear
Jump through the hoop
And the hell out of here
A song in a box
On wheels we have blown
Glides on the back
Of a snake made of stone
Through shadows unfolding
And clouds fallen slack
At the edge of tomorrow
And no turning back
Reanimate angel
Break from your cage
Witness the prophecy
Sprung from the page
The moon in your marrow
The smoke on your skin
The mask in the mirror
The master within
Oh but I?ve seen your sorrow
At the edge of the screen
Soften the focus and into a dream
But the barrier is thin
And the room begins to spin
The barrier is thin
And the room begins to spin
The moon in your marrow
The smoke on your skin
The portal is open
And the kingdom is within
