"Higher Than The Morning (Forevermore)" lyrics - TRANSATLANTIC

Be long, be long - better to belong

As the bombs will fall to the ground
Lights go out in a far away town
For weeks we've heard only prayers for rain
But the answer is 'fire' - again and again

We're all victims of circumstance
They are just bricks - lives in the balance
Hoops of fire join the dance
Strike by night - don't stand a chance

Climb higher than the morning
Clouds gather without warning
Climb higher than the morning
Winds fly without a warning to the night

Be long, be long

So many kings - but there's only one crown
In the end the weakest has to back down
He lost his face - now he looks like a clown
On a river of gold - but he's bound to drown
He built his kingdom on deceit and lies
There's this frightening void if you look in his eyes

It's so revolting, either that or you're amused
To see what those objects do out there
From out of boredom you partake but you're confused
You're not so great as you once thought you were

Climb higher than the morning
Clouds gather without warning
Climb higher than the morning
Winds fly without a warning, always

Here there is a fire
There deep as desire
Far and away from me
Reach, there in the quiet
Seek and you will find it
Right where it's said to be

Heart is like a whirlwind
Heart is like a whirlwind
