Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ever flowing white ghosts form on my fingertips
Balanced in peace, dancing in light
My grip blooms and blossoms forever more
Incubated, in silence we find tranquility
Distilled into memories, we shut off, retired among the infinite
[Verse 2]
We aim for balance standing on cannonballs
(Outside the battlefields)
We aim for balance standing on cannonballs
We slam in clay and dig deep (Dig deep)
And labyrinth trenches around craters we call home
(Such an amazing defeat)
[Verse 3]
Rage, I will put this all back inside of me
Ghosts of my past lift me up (Lift me up)
Carry me through blinding night
Rage, find me beneath the iron mines
Below ten thousand lakes, find me beyond the pines
[Verse 4]
Now face your back to the storm
Forget the shelters you would seek before
Let your feet hit the ground
Don't look to where the siren sounds
[Verse 5]
Yeah, we aim for balance standing on cannonballs
(Outside the battlefields)
We aim for balance standing on cannonballs
We slam in clay and dig deep (Dig deep)
And labyrinth trenches around craters we call home
(Such an amazing defeat)
[Verse 6]
We misplace dreams
And study braille though out the dark
And there's hope for a better future
(And these hopes for a better life)
[Verse 7]
Rage, I will put this all back inside of me
Ghosts of my past lift me up (Lift me up)
Carry me through blinding night
Rage, join me beneath the iron mines
Below ten thousand lakes, join me beyond the pines
