BEYOND THE VEIL
|
|
The fiber of this life is paper thin
|
A spider's web can be torn by a shift in the wind
|
And the mirror pool is shattered when you toss a pebble in
|
|
CHORUS:
|
And I'm not afraid to admit that I'm afraid
|
Bewildered by the great and the terrible way we're made
|
Oh that my eyes could shed these scales
|
I can almost make out the shape of a face
|
Just beyond the veil
|
|
Questions crowd my heart and will not pass
|
My prayers are lost in silence and the sky is like brass
|
But I'll stay on my knees until my answer comes at last
|
|
CHORUS
|
Closer to the flame
|
We drink our cup of pain
|
And it burns us to the bone
|
In the fire we find a strength
|
Greater than our own
|
Than our own
|
|
CHORUS
|
