The Window and the Burning Church

Here take the breath from me
Come take my chance away
Help make the peace be gone
Push all my pillars down
I’ll walk a thousand miles
I'll splinter record time
Stop short a mile from home
Turn back and lose my way
And I’ll follow homeless gods
And I’ll pray for ends of things
Talking to missionaries
Of lost land and halted hopes
So why wait for answers here?
And why take a path that’s worn?
I’ll climb down a ropeless hole
I'll measure hell in hours
Then point my brain at clouds
Till I find the sun again
O make me to give a damn
Bend me to setting goals
I’ll turn the rivers back
And great lakes anew will form
Don’t ask for sense from me
You won’t find it in my clothes
Lean back to see the sky
Back, back till all goes dark.
