After One Quarter of a Revolution

Cleaned up the mess I'm in, now I am born again
Naked, spotless motion without strings
I've flushed the filth to sea, the limbs and sharp debris
But if that water rises, woe is me

Hearts aren't beating, they're counting down
Breaths aren't stolen, they're groomed and given out
The closet is teeming with broken bones
I'll be driven out and swallowed whole

I walk the crooked mile with the devil on my back
Puppeteering schemes with every step
But I once could walk through walls and drift above it all
Pursuing endless love to endless depths

Hearts aren't beating, they're counting down
Breaths aren't stolen, they're groomed and given out
The closet is teeming with broken bones
I'll be driven out and swallowed whole

Object all you want
But I am not done with you

Lives will be lost
Children will grieve
Entire nations will crumble and blood will run deep
But we will be redeemed

You and I will be weightless
We'll stay unborn
So death can't start the clock
Oh, and love can seep through our pores
