I don’t know why I believe
That the world without a man
Would still have the look
Of being looked at
If all the ground is flesh
And ocean is your blood
I always knew you
But I don’t think I understood
I’m a landlocked conch shell
Carrying the sound of the waves
I hear the ocean in myself
But I can’t reach the place
That always led me on
For proof of the dawn
I could never find
During the night
I die to find your face
I try to defy your grace
The higher the climb
The higher the ledgе
The more I give
Thе sweeter the death
What if I told you
The same Lazarus
Christ resurrected
Had died again?
Would being here at all
Be all you needed all along
Or would you still require
Some greater miracle?
A descending dove
That always leads to a death
To reveal life to live
But brings me back to the thought
Of if I’ll be caught when I fall
Of if my wonder outweighs
My desire to escape my pain
I die to find your face
I try to defy your grace
The higher the climb
The higher the ledge
The more I give
The sweeter the death
