There’s stunning in the stars And they wish away all of my prison bars As they shine from on high And whisper that I’m not gonna die Not from treason, not from rain Not from people I’ll never see again As the bird alights on my shoulder I roll away the boulder At the mouth of the tomb And find my Lord like I found the womb Of all existence And the resistance Is subterfuge In the deluge Of somehow in the Sunday Would the Son of Man love me anyway In spite of all I have not done And the promise of being young Was not enough to stem the tide Of longing to abide In a deeper state of being And the seeing Is no longer enough I have to become the love Instead of picking fights With people when they’re being shites And talking me down to sin Telling me that though I walk with Him I am lost in the sea And I get a knee Into the chest It knows how to wind me best With the loss of love Why do you do this when above Is the standard we bear I watched the Universe tear
