Yesterday with eyes away the briefness of a moment As in a blinding flash of light the world came remade Vague my life, A distant shadow filtered through my mind And dreamed my lovers kiss subdued the emptiness inside I watch a thousand ships go by From the cliffs above the helpless tide I raise my chin to the god within As to carry fear with a failing grin And blizzard rage fills every page Fills every breath and every taste I raise my chin to the god within As to carry fear with a failing grin And blizzard rage fills every page Fills every breath and every taste Within Pretending nothing's to take the place of our disappearing words Silence where the water flows and where our actions blur So angels kiss the brows and lips and pull the strings inside Waiting for the firelight to bring tomorrow home I watch a thousand ships go by From the cliffs above the raging tide I raise my chin to the god within As to carry fear with a failing grin And blizzard rage fills every page Fills every breath and every taste I raise my chin to the god within As to carry fear with a failing grin And blizzard rage fills every page Fills every breath and every taste Within (spoken words- not written down- sorry) I raise my chin to the god within As to carry fear with a failing grin And blizzard rage fills every page Fills every breath and every taste I raise my chin to the god within As to carry fear with a failing grin And blizzard rage fills every page Fills every breath and every taste Within
