should I hold them in my hand?
they will disappear... in the warmth of my tears
icy strings of frost
bitten by those colder years
come into view, the truth: flowers are blooming in poverty
all the more I wish to see
in those blossoms at dawn
the face of god
clouds are just a chance to dodge
the ability to see the moon
darkness comes to rest our heads
while the grasses gather dew
come into view, the truth: flowers are blooming in poverty
all the more I wish to see
in those blossoms at dawn
the face of god
how many tears are cradled
by a single blade of grass?
yet light reflects and dreams are measured
by icy strings of frost
come into view, the truth: flowers are blooming in poverty
all the more I wish to see
in those blossoms at dawn
the face of god
in those blossoms at dawn
is the face of god
