This stony ground

from Thy Grace & Wisdom by The Imaginary Suitcase

lyrics

If hope is not hopeless and tears are not useless on this stony gound
If will is not endless and god is not helpless can you hear the sound
Devoid of all fears and sensations I wake up as the tide rolls in
Someday our tears will pour down and feed the holy land
Someday our tears will pour down and feed the stony gound

If love isn’t restless then why does it fly from us as we lay down
If god really hates us, then why did he throw us on this stony ground
The trials that stand in the way we never had the time to share
Someday our tears will pour down and feed the holy land
Someday our tears will pour down and feed the stony gound

If love it was harmless and wasn’t so reckless would you take my hand
If behind the promise there were no more bruises would you sing my song
The stars they shine brighter tonight they bear witness to the showdown
The mask wears off, the faces come, the devil laughs inside
The mask wears off and all around, you hear a wailing sound

The stars they shine brighter tonight but by the morning I’ll be gone
The devil smiles and winks an eye it’s only just begun
Someday, I’ll cast my arms away and run into the sun
