Embrace Songtext
Absence sharpens; presence strengthens
You can't ever leave complete
Sometimes free but never freedom
Dreams destroy your sleep
Caution's fatal; would be winner
But the reckless risk their kingdom
Better had and lost they whisper
Doubt them when you weep
I couldn't listen
It might shatter should I hear
So alone then and you're so near
Purest wisdom of the foolish
Only folly of the wise
Like a mousetrap entered freely
Then escape denied
Experience will count for nothing
Tender look becomes addiction
With this ghost that all have whispered
But so few have spied
I bathe in ashes
Where the water used to flow
Consumed by echoes
Search the rubble for my soul
I will not be your ghost
Not while I stand, I live, I breathe
Against this distance
Flesh and blood your eyes could see
Do you ever miss the you you were
When you were with me?
I miss the me I was with you
Is there another form of together?
Another way of together?
(Guitar solo)
Could we make another form of together?
Forge another way of together
To save the likes of us?
On a violent, wind-racked night
With the sky as dark as secrets
Drive until you hear the ocean
Crash against the rocks
Climb out to the farthest boulder
Stand surrounded by the fury
Arch your back; throw out your arms and exhale
Kindred with the wind
Fiber of a storm
Dissolve into the spray
Far away I will await you
'Midst a sea of pounding memories
In my never-ending storm I feel your scent arrive
Will be open once again
To you pressing soft against me
Take your breath into my chest
Recognize this heat inside
I will close my arms around
Tightly, ever so tight for life; for love
I will embrace
