Lyrics

[00:10.46] Your father was always the rational kind
[00:15.68] He followed the news he read all the science
[00:20.93] There's no room for more, no room to expand
[00:26.37] Would you really give birth astride sinking sand?
[00:31.58] For the world is a lung we barely breathe through
[00:36.61] Why make a new life to pass it on to?
[00:41.81] So I searched for a way to keep you a dream
[00:46.92] One that lived in my heart and would never be seen
[00:52.66] But you, my son, you broke through it all
[00:57.67] Through every reason each side of the wall
[01:04.11] You, my light, my hope at the end
[01:10.02] You my son, my starting again
[01:18.83] My starting again<br>     ~<br>
[01:31.99] Your father was always a practical man
[01:36.89] The oceans are rising, the hole is expanding
[01:41.84] I've seen what's coming, the ash in the sky
[01:47.03] He told me "My woman, we don't have a right
[01:52.27] You'll never find a reason bigger than this
[01:57.58] To keep your heart in a closed fist"
[02:02.86] So I searched for a meaning bigger than you
[02:08.16] Tried telling myself the right thing to do
[02:13.52] But you, my son, you broke through it all
[02:19.16] Every reason each side of the wall
[02:25.02] You, my light, my hope at the end
[02:30.85] You my son, my starting again
[02:39.79] My starting again
[02:45.80] My starting again
[02:51.71] My starting again
[03:04.04] When you appeared
[03:06.80] It was louder than sense
[03:09.61] Stronger than life
[03:12.36] Bigger than fear
[03:15.06] Yeah when you appeared
[03:18.61] It was fire and God and tears and oceans of light
[03:25.55] And suddenly hearing his heart loud and clear
[03:37.58] Like he was starting again
[03:40.97] Starting again, starting again, starting again, starting again
[03:49.65] Yeah we were starting again, starting again, starting again
[04:01.64] Your father was always the rational kind, till you arrived
