Jaws Of Heaven Lyrics - X - Spocks Beard

Weary I was walking 

A disassembled man 

I wandered through creation 

A ghost upon the land 

Cloaked in threads of all my lifetimes 

Deep-stitched into bone 

Like a tapestry of shadows 

Acid-etched in stone 

Longing to remember 

The day I left the pyre 

And rose up like a phoenix 

From a far-off ancient fire 

Now I'm homesick for the ashes 

Of the world I've known 

On a path toward perdition 

That I'll walk alone

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Cold night in a quiet town 

I found a crowd and stood back as it grew 

Echoes of a place in time 

When a million voices rose anew 

Words of war spread faster than a prairie fire 

Through the jaws of heaven here we go 

From on high the chosen told 

Tales of old the faithful chose to hear 

Wake up all your sleeping souls 

Gather up your guns the end is near 

Words of war spread faster than a prairie fire 

Through the jaws of heaven here we go 

Marching onto glory in a battle just 

Staring down the devil eye to eye 

Riding on a pale horse to deliver us 

Down into the darkest by and by

I awoke this morning 

A lifetime come and gone 

The ending of a journey 

My destiny at dawn 

Yesterday behind me 

There is only now 

Every circle that was closing 

Is opening somehow 

And it's clear to see the reasons 

Are woven deep in the wondering 

Something left to live for 

Nothing left to prove 

Fallen saints and angels 

Watch our every move 

Shallow ran the river 

That kept our worlds apart 

As we fought to feed the hunger 

In the hollows of our hearts 

Now it's clear to me the reasons 

Are woven deep in the wondering 

The rain's return reveals a future 

A gathering of souls 

Once barren fields now green surrounds us 

Our dreams of home are whole again 

We're whole again 

Yesterday behind me 

There is only now 

Every circle that was closing 

Is opening somehow 

And it's clear to see the reasons 

Are woven deep in the wondering
