This plane is going down in flames
and this time there's no black box to capture your last words
A situation we can't make any sense of
Sacrifice costs all of us everything
This is the time to turn down our heads and turn up our hearts
There's no scale to balance this out
Some say may those who curse days, curse this day
There's no scale to balance this out
How does a man wrap his mind around eternity
Don't you see it's bigger than you?
He sleeps in the mountains of Indonesia,
and the white on his flag brings colors to shame
The earth will swallow the water
The clouds refill the oceans
The earth will swallow the water and spit out
The clouds will refill, refill the oceans
The earth will swallow
(Old mountains will crumble
....?)
the water and spit out, and stronger ones will rise
The clouds will refill
This is the portrait of the humble and broken.
This plane crashed down in flames with a man who lived, who died, to better this world
David, rest in peace.
