lyrics

What I know to be true
is a portal for dying

Every want, every fear
repeating years of contriving

Listen ~ do you know what it is to die?
Do you know that your heart barely makes it through the fire?

Do you know where the roots of your vision lie?
Are you seeing what’s here?
Or simply the echoes of time…

Will you risk the collapse of all that you think you need?
To escape… all that you believe

What will you choose when the light of experience fades?
The safety of your fear or the vastness of your one true face?

Dying is a sacred song… (x4)

Sing it till you come home
Sing it till the truth is clear
Sing it with all your fears
Oh… baby, sing it with all your fears

Cuz dying is a sacred song
Oh… I tell you nothing is wrong
Dying is a sacred song
I tell you nothing is wrong
