Lark

[Verse 1] The golden ratio, the shell The stairs ascending 'round themselves The trees rustle as if to kneel and listen The heartbeat of a lark Or the lark in my heartbeat The oxygen in priestly green The answers dressed in labyrinthine The telescopes atop the mountains of ecstatic vision Listening to the heartbeat of a lark Or the lark in my heartbeat [Chorus] Hey, hey, hey, hey I am assured, yes, I am assured, yes I am assured peace will come to me A peace that can, yes, surpass the speed, yes Of my understanding and my need [Verse 2] The meteoric warp and wend In counterbalance to the sparks ever ascending The arrow time shoots forward though it moves through repetition The heartbeat of a lark Or a lark in my heartbeat Hey, hey, hey, hey What is it drives the driven snow? Upon whose temples will I rest my weary hopes now? The rain distills down steeples fills the ears of lonely church mice With the heartbeat of a lark Or the lark in my heartbeat [Chorus]
