To reach this hallowed ground
vainly I am trying
Return to slumber: This light's
not worth the waking
This hope, reality in my mind
still vying
Bathed in your glory suddenly,
angels flying,
Your tragedy exquisite, mine
for the taking
To reach this hallowed ground
vainly I am trying
Focused on our seperate world
crafted with sighing
Delighted with paradise that
I was making
This hope, reality in my min
still vying
Then shattered: True words
interrupt silent lying
I'm reeling, not bitter, watching
your stars breaking
To reach this hallowed ground
vainly I am trying
Intensity still churning: release
through crying
The yearning too long restrained,
incessant shaking
This hope, reality, in my
mind still vying
My mouth still smiles, in spite
of all that's dying
All within me searching to
escape the aching
To reach this hallowed ground
vainly I am trying,
This hope, reality in my mind
still vying.
