[Verse 1]
The golden ratio, the shell
The stairs ascending 'round themselves
The trees rustle as if to kneel and listen
The heartbeat of a lark
Or the lark in my heartbeat
The oxygen in priestly green
The answers dressed in labyrinthine
The telescopes atop the mountains of ecstatic vision
Listening to the heartbeat of a lark
Or the lark in my heartbeat
[Chorus]
Hey, hey, hey, hey
I am assured, yes, I am assured, yes
I am assured peace will come to me
A peace that can, yes, surpass the speed, yes
Of my understanding and my need
[Verse 2]
The meteoric warp and wend
In counterbalance to the sparks ever ascending
The arrow time shoots forward though it moves through repetition
The heartbeat of a lark
Or a lark in my heartbeat
Hey, hey, hey, hey
What is it drives the driven snow?
Upon whose temples will I rest my weary hopes now?
The rain distills down steeples fills the ears of lonely church mice
With the heartbeat of a lark
Or the lark in my heartbeat
[Chorus]
