Akron/Family - Raising the Sparks lyrics

Sadly we grieved As the groom lost his tongue And began to unfold all his questions. From a place near his heart Where his ribs caged a spark That was lighting enlightening burdens. Crowds gathered round Fathers lost, sons had found What the bachelors of old all were missing. And a glimpsed image spoke, Faded fast, made of smoke It could barely be heard, such a murmur. Such a sight never seen Like the thousands of dreams That you've 'wakened to never remember. And a residue left Right through day into night Lighting up enough space to be empty. We thought we found The source of the sound But illusions are made of such thinking. We lost, we found ourselves Back on the ground, Holding the walls of our bedrooms to Raise the sparks.
