Green Iris

[Intro]
Whispered a name no one remembers
One faints like a song on a lyre
Another, while breathing out
Had the sweet smile of a young angel
Coming back through the twigs and dark foliage
I see their eyes sparkle

[Verse 1]
In your gaze I’m undone
How? I wonder what went wrong
End of days brings us home
Exegesis, it just drags on

[Chorus]
I hear the fates
Sing their song, blithely whispering
I’m not afraid
Sing your song and then tear me away

[Verse 2]
All light will fail in the morning
Won’t you tell me how we’ll fall
In cosmic fire or sudden war
Your green iris, it sees it all

[Chorus]
Because I see your gaze
When they sing their song and they blithely whispering
I’m not afraid
Sing your song and then tear me away

[Outro]
Here come the saints, it ain’t like nothing you can imagine
The ringing clangor of one hundred and forty thousand and four
If you paid attention, by now you should know the story
It’s the reclaiming of power in glory
It’s the sound you knew just wasn’t there
And alight, so bright that no one can bear it
So it changes your spirit
And bares your natural soul
