Everything In Its Own Time

Lyrics

remember everything i told you
 keep it in your heart like a stone
 and when the winds have blown things round and back again
 what was once your pain will be your home
 all around the table the white haired men have gathered
 spilling their sons' blood like table wine
 (spilling their sons' blood)
 remember everything i told you
 everything in its own time
 ♪
 the music whispers you in urgency
 hold fast to that languageless connection
 a thread of known that was unknown and unseen seen
 dangling from inside the fifth direction
 (dangling from inside the fifth direction)
 boys around the table are mapping out their strategies
 kings all of mountains one day dust
 a lesson learned a loving god and things in their own time
 in nothing more do i trust
 we own nothing
 nothing is ours
 not even love so fierce it burns like baby stars
 but this poverty is our greatest gift
 (nothing is ours)
 the weightlessness of us as things around begin to shift
 (the weightlessness as things begin to shift)
 ♪
 remember everything i told you
 (remember everything i told you)
 keep it in your heart like a stone
 (keep it in your heart like a stone)
 and when the winds have blown things round and back again
 (when the winds have blown things round)
 what was once your pain will be your home
 everything in its own time
 everything in its own time
 ♪
 oh
 oh
 oh
 oh
