Offered Blood

When the light explodes in sound
 There are no words left for you
 Breathe
 It's real
 Sleep, wake, again, again
 Try to wrap your mind around what could follow
 I give you but a glimpse
 And your blood's turned to fire
 This is what the voice said to me
 And then in a thunderous roar, it said
 I don't apply to any of your rules
 I am the fire you were before you were you
 You begin to see how I've been waiting
 You will not set mid-stride
 For we've yet to run, let alone fly
 So courage
 O sore bones, O ache, O offered blood
 The gift of pain well-earned
 Throbs and volts welcomed as conversation few others understand
 They say look brother how we've climbed
 Four winds and only solid's left to lift
 But mass is pretend when you play at spectacle
 All the silent tingles in the air pulse
 And the animals know you're coming
 Iweall
 Iweall
 Iweall
 Iweall
