We Carried the Boat - Parallax

Tattered and torn
The edges are worn down
Through the margin beyond repair

In the beginning there were names
Beautiful verses of cursive so furtive
It impelled us to rip out the page

This is not crying when all others would turn to tears
This is not looking back to review the tired years
This is thunder on the mountain where the hunter seeks the beast
This is thunder on the mountain where the weak become the feast

The bonds that don't break are the only ones that matter
Outstretched hand's finger's lick
At the potential to create something new

The stored power of a life you won't forget
Rallies in your chest for fear of dreams that shatter

This is not crying when all others would turn to tears
This is not looking back to review the tired years
This is thunder on the mountain where the hunter seeks the beast
This is thunder on the mountain where the weak become the feast

And we die trying

The horizon burns like paper
As we pencil in our new lives
Sheet music wind song lullaby
Of forgetting

Blank pages litter the road ahead
You are leaving everything but nothing behind
Blank pages litter the road ahead
You are leaving everything but nothing behind
Blank pages litter the road ahead
You are leaving everything but nothing behind
Blank pages litter the road ahead
You are leaving
You are leaving
