"Lark" lyrics - JOSH RITTER

The golden ratio, the shell
The stairs ascending 'round themselves
The trees rustle as if to kneel and listen
The heartbeat of a lark
Or the lark in my heartbeat

The oxygen in priestly green
The answers dressed in labyrinthine
The telescopes atop the mountains of ecstatic vision
Listening to the heartbeat of a lark
Or the lark in my heartbeat

[Chorus:]
Hey, hey, hey, hey
I am assured, yes, I am assured, yes
I am assured peace will come to me
A peace that can, yes, surpass the speed, yes
Of my understanding and my need

The meteoric warp and wend
In counterbalance to the sparks ever ascending
The arrow time shoots forward though it moves through repetition
The heartbeat of a lark
Or a lark in my heartbeat
Hey, hey, hey, hey

What is it drives the driven snow?
Upon whose temples will I rest my weary hopes now?
The rain distills down steeples fills the ears of lonely church mice
With the heartbeat of a lark
Or the lark in my heartbeat

[Chorus]
