65 years, four children deep now
You're calling it out
65 years of toting the party line
Up until this moment had worked just fine
You're killing all the promises of your past
A sudden truth, like lightning,
Hits you hard, and it hits you fast
And it won't be unknown
Said you heard a tale or two on the radio
Reminded you of you
A reflection with a heavy load
65 years of faith on the chopping block
A ship setting sail for unknown waters
Never to return to the dock
You're killing all the promises of your past
A sudden truth, like lightning,
Hits you hard and it hits you fast
And it can't be unknown
The real world is scary
Full of uncertainty
A chemical reaction
A divine conspiracy
A coincidence of chaos
Surviving in an infinite void
The breath of a giant beast
The echo of an ancient noise
Killing all the promises of your past
Coming clean, seeing clear
That love is all you have that lasts
Taking on a cosmic fall from grace
A deeper calling kept you planted,
Kept you in this open place
Embrace the unknown
