Magnification lyrics

Days that we speak
I believe that you were right
Shouldn't chase the demons and the phantoms of the night

Some treat as lovers
Some treat as slaves
This fusion of insight is all that we imagine

Speak to me clearly
You're the magnet to my soul
I get so distracted trying to reason with it all
Like the faithful

In this world the gods have lost their way

Can't keep this picture from out of my mind
This fear hand in hand crossing innocence, time
Surrounding creation they caught in a trap
The youngest offenders will witness confusion

They driving so fast not a care in the end
Escaping collision every twist every bend

Don't be so cruel hurting yourself
Don't be so greedy making it bad
Don't be so dark echoing out
Don't spend the day waiting for me

After all you didn't have to do it
You broke your own heart; it hurt you so bad
Why don't you take your defense down a little
Or you won't understand at all

Don't go, don't go let it

Standing here on sacred ground
Some days it's a mad world let it be
Words of promise fill the air, empty voices
How long have we waited?

And every time I hold your hand
You bring to me this promised land
I live for you, this promised land

Take me there and back again
Some days it's a sad world let it be
What's the point of looking for this power divine?
It's already in my changes

Can you imagine what it's like seeing life
From the other side
Do you imagine darkened light, starless night?
You might need a guide

And will the illusion confuse you, play with your thoughts
And alter your mind
Or become a delusion, include you
Change your existence
For another kind

Answers never clear again
This turning of the page
This turn look away

There I took a left turning
Before I came of age
I agreed to let it out
I agreed to let it go
I agreed to turn around
I agreed to turn my face away

Danger is the most important
Fear you'll ever know
The transporting of refugees

Soft as a dove
Touching the hand that lays next to me
Innocent light
Leading us through a moment in time

Then you came home
I let you cry like a father should do
Innocent light
Leading us to a moment in time

Soft as a dove
Touching the hand that lays next to me
Innocent light
Leading us through this moment in time

Dreamtime begins
Where every song is the perfect place
Words never spoken
Are the strongest resounding

Life force is meant for us
To remember the stars, the earth
Still we forget
So asleep in this dreamtime
Lost in this dreamtime day

Take me up into that freedom place and justify
Electrify the senses sharpen than the soul intensify

Time has saved as time has moved

Night has come at last to shine on you

Last night I looked inside the moon

And I knew you were real

So every time I look at you

You know exactly how I feel

Time has saved us time has moved

Night has come at last to shine on you

Take the time to know how you will fill my life
