about

An anthem-y plea that we all come to our senses.

lyrics

I watch the sky on this vermillion morning
I know it says the traveler should beware
The cloudiest of dawns means the darkness hasn't won
Though the message isn't clear

The day is coming for our healing, and it isn't far away
One prayer might fix it all, one heart might change the score
If I told you it was yours, what would you say?

I'd say let's plan the celebration
For when love has claimed the stage
In the ashes of our pain, plant seeds of right
Walk beside our sisters and our brothers through this rain
Til the last of us has finally seen the light

The day is coming, I'll be going
Could be soon, it might be far away
So I think about my life, what I'll leave behind
I know I got time but none to waste

When the last of us gives peace it's chance to guide us,
We finally give our hearts a chance to shine
When we give without expecting
Drop the stories we're protecting
Maybe we could give all that a try

Let's plan the celebration
For when love has claimed the stage
In the ashes of our pain, plant seeds of right
Stand beside our sisters and our brothers through this rain
Til the last of us has finally seen the light

Stand beside our sisters and our brothers through this rain
One day, all of us will finally see the light
