lyrics

on the verge of the depression
in the depths of the despair
between the waves that shape the maelstrom
at the center of it all

i found land
where the water meets the sand
at last i seem to understand

on the edge of every breakdown
in the middle of the night
between the wonder and the heartache
at the end of every song

present joy
in spite of all the noise
it's impossible to lose my voice

nothing is better than letting it in
swallow the mystery and find what it brings
from the deep end to birds flying high in the sky
the heart is still inside

on the contrary there's sequence
in the scheme of understanding
between the infinite and dawning
at the start of time itself

there's a love
and a gift for no applause
entering where we have lost

when i thought i hit the bottom
when i thought i had it all
i ran right into conclusion
got a planet to explore

hourglass
shattered in the past
who would wanna live this fast?
