lyrics

This is not illusory, yet fleeting we see
the darkness that fades away, when they become we

Control is not elusive when fear is just a choice
I am not the only one that dreads an absent voice
come with me til I can just find the olive branch
all in time

Just stay where you will lie,
I'll be right there in time,
In time, I'll be with you

Sparrow flock trajectory, is guided by one
Careening from grace to stray, away from free,

Deafened by the silence is every maker's mark,
suppression by coercion pushed back into cement
grab your pick and hammer let's pry ourselves away
all in time

Just stay where you will lie
I'll be right there
In time, I'll be with you
