A Power

[Chorus] I don’t have the power But while I’m here, standing on this earth I want to love I don’t want to be remorseless I want to be sympathy I want to sieve sympathy I want to die in peaceful quiet knowing nothing but the silence The silence of the truth The silence of an open face [Chorus] I want to close my eyes knowing I saw this rock teeming with life and float off to the void at the top of the sky Just knowing that I loved and lost in all directions and that I lived to the highest of the highest Just promise you’ll live like you wanted and if I died then tomorrow then you’d wake up and hunger for something to fill you To take you and hold you, transfix you and change you And making you stronger you’d open your mouth to the sun And screaming you’d become a crystal of meaning in nothing Dark silence and the void [Chorus]
