Lyrics:

I am the river
Hide
Glance in the fire light

Clay and stones laid down on me
Undying pain for my soul to keep
Where’s a road through sorrow
There’s a way to hope
Will I find you?
Or will I be lost?

I can see stars are falling
How I’ll know what’s right?
Let me hold your hand in darkness
Watching rivers of light

I hope the light turns true
And answers me as well as you

When the black birds come
And show me the way
True is the path
While matter decays
Still the rain keeps pouring
In this longest night
Do the answers lie
In the rivers of light?

I can see stars are falling
How I’ll know what’s right?
Let me hold your hand in darkness
Watching rivers of light

I dream of landscapes
As mirrors of souls
United and untamed
I dream of forests
As temples of love
It dwells amongst the haze
I feel like sun and moon
Like fire and water
Everything coheres
I feel like mountains
Storms and light
Achieving to be free
I see slopes with grass
Gold and waving
All that lies below
I see your eyes with mine
Beyond pain
Together we ascent
