lyrics

Some things are impossible to witness
We were not absent
But there are things you cannot see
That some others believe in
It’s not in my power
To forgive you truly
Too much water passed under
More than there should be
And I can’t help but think
They will go to your funeral
And throw earth with relief
At your final burial
Beware the dryness of heart
That comes with the mourning spring
We cannot survive
Every passing thing
I am not sure
That even at the end
You were able to understand
Or to comprehend
Everything we had witnessed
Everything you tore apart
Even though you could forget
It was something that we can’t

We stood still by your bedside
Unsure of what to say
This hadn’t hurt like the last time
It just wasn’t the same
Before the machine could flatline
Your pulse had realigned
We watched you stir uncertain
Of what you would then find
You were saved for a moment
Caught on the edge
Brought back for a moment
Not in order to live
You have so little time left
But you must give testimony
Before you surrender finally
To the dark boundary

I will try to hold on tight
To my last breath
When there’s nothing left

The light on the wall
And the splendour of the sky
It led him away from us
To wherever we may die
Any feelings we might of had
Any resentment had now gone
We could no longer tarnish his name
The way we had once done
He had payed his final price
And taken with him his name
Even though he tore apart our family
We could still rekindle the flame

Be courageous when the mind deceives you
Be courageous for in the final account
We must go where those others went
Only this is important
Nothing is your prize
There’s nothing left for us
So go on to the dark boundary invisible to us all

I am glad in the end
He had taken what was due
And we were there to say
No one will console you
