I find no peace
And make no war
Fly above the sky
And fall to the floor
I burn with fear
And I'm cold as ice

Neither free nor jailed
I'm in between
You had your day
and cease to be
You flee the night
To a brighter noon

Quiet in this dark hour
Things are alright
Setting free the life
that might have been
What way to break out
Like a green spring
I hear your voice where
the waters run and dream
Shadows bending backward
To the start of the end
Your presence known 
I stand alone
And embrace the world again

A light shines in
And turns me out
Sets the ground ablaze
Rekindling doubt
So much to say
And lost in words

On a sunlit day
I sink below
Feel the dew-laden soil
Before letting go
From decay to youth
Yesterday evermore

Quiet in this dark hour
Things are alright
Setting free the life
that might have been
What way to break out
Like a green spring
I hear your voice voice
the waters run and dream
Shadows bending backward
To the start of the end
Your presence known 
I stand alone
And embrace the world again

Many times each day
I'm born and I die
Like an angel with wings
Not painted but alive
In some far away town
Unburdened by years

A sweetness returns
That my sad heart once named
Never far from where
The dust remains
It lingers there
Unjust, unfair

Quiet in this dark hour
Things are alright
Setting free the life
that might have been
What way to break out
Like a green spring
I hear your voice where
the waters run and dream
Shadows bending backward
To the start of the end
Your presence known 
I stand alone
And embrace the world again
