Beatbeat Whisper - And Suddenly Apart Was Shared lyrics

For health and strength and daily bread, we give thee thanks, our world… As bread breaks, as bridges bust and quake, underfoot uprooted and waiting As blind sides stroll casually by, underneath the steps left behind we'll be leading… At a first glance only form did he see, weathered over by time, as lines side by side Placing mirror in front of he, his own ripple water, sudden spied His own ripple water, his own two eyes… "But," they cried, "cast not your weary glances here For I have to carry my own, my wings, my shoulders And blades, they say will wash away my enemy, these blades, they say Will wash away, will wash away…" these blades, they pray will wash away, will wash away, away… And looking far, and farther on beyond He sees the lighter skin, clothes darker, eye notes, but inside it's the Same as the sun, from the eyes It was bright as the sun, in the eyes… Tum-bel-ing down to him, save him from arrogance Tumbling over him, washing his darkness, the blinds of the horses Tum-bel-ing over him, ricochet lightning show Till mirrors he sees, through gla** he goes… Looking backwards beholds the elephant's child Growing bolder and wise, with no fear in her step for her hide, for her cloak And her trunk never stolen, so precious is her note, so beautiful those notes Those notes, the notes, the notes… And in her, his family held closely in seams, the stitching is soft, no barrier it leaves And lightest of thread held them all by the knees Together at the knees were the strongest of strings Oh the strings, oh the strings! the strongest of strings At the knees, together at the knees were the strings Oh the strings they were needed and seen, they were seen, oh Together at the knees were the strings… And backwards he bent to see merely as things But he'd forgotten the meaning of separate, of sacred Backwards he bent to see merely as things But he'd forgotten what it meant to have hatred
