Violin - N8 - AEA Listening Library

I see the dark beyond the light and pray to get home alive
Humbled and sobered, I take the lead
And then I draw back

Stay the moon

Arm in arm and home from war, fortresses overrun
A summer of dry hope falls away and then the white comes

Stay the moon

See the art in the baby's eyes
and the light to return home to tides of somewhere far
I might still be alive

I am a part
I am a piece
I am a psalm
I am the church
Another pawn with a back to break
Wishing on bold, gold corporate woes to burn and raze

You are the sea and the dark
An unknown goal without a mark
Come morning, you knock at the door with a basket of dried berries and sweet liqueur

Gold star to clear to bar for someone bleached in light
Skin and blood is warm to touch
Tomorrow's bite is cold
