White Stag

I saw the white stag
 He presented himself
 With a great crown of antlers
 He tore up the ground
 Ran down fiery lanes
 Told me he's always ran with my soul
 Since the cosmos was kindled
 And now that we knew
 We could do anything
 Yeah
 World stand fast and behold
 Oh, I'm giving all my soul
 See, I walk in the light
 Fiction's fed me thus far
 For the most part
 Spend however long we feel we need in the
 dark
 Brief head pokes over the walls
 Yeah, then together we stood tall
 Little kid with storybooks for brains
 Thought that was the be all end all
 Yeah, but that's growing up, aint it?
 We drink joy and taste pain
 Circle round, return, ride it again
 We know the words but can't speak the language
 And it's hard
 Forgive yesterday, oh silly yesterday
 Said today
 So sure, been made but you know that
 Tomorrow's sure to be a smirk and a head shake
 What's sure? 'Nothing', says the man in the grave
 Hard speech and saplings
 A young man, the only one who knows
 Fruit bearer, Cloud King
 And he will reign for all his flowers
 Reign for all his flowers
 There is no name for the stir in him
 When he sees the trouble he can save
 Go on and call him Woe Breaker, Saint's Bale, Debt Payer
 With a stern gaze, this one means
 Spirit of All, guide him
 You've carried to the helm, now aid in the manning
 Dream undertowed
 Naught but the furious hope to earn the grace could navigate
 Above below, but still under, rose enough to see that it's a choice
 Hands above, head under
 Clouds dance and weave in infinite potential
 The surface is the youth-man line
 And if dreams don't end, they die, say again
 The surface is the youth-man line
 And if dreams don't end...
 And if dreams don't end...
 And if dreams don't end...
 And if dreams don't end they die
 Help him understand
 Grant him the courage to rise and rise well
 He wills in your name
 On forever in beautiful ways
 Help him understand
 Grant him the courage to rise and rise well
 He wills in your name
 On forever in beautiful ways
