| [00:38.35] |
Ten thousand glimmering like coals in our chest |
| [00:46.30] |
Ball bearings drawn to the magnetic breath |
| [00:53.74] |
Of ten thousand weeping with wings on their tears |
| [01:01.19] |
Amidst ten thousand voices for ten thousand years |
| [01:08.90] |
For ten thousand graves yawning unlocked and unlatched |
| [01:13.26] |
Now ten thousand holes with rocks on their backs |
| [01:18.00] |
Ten thousand tombs gaping wide singing the praise |
| [01:22.18] |
Of ten thousand bodies unlaced and unlaid |
| [03:07.30][01:29.59] |
As the ten thousand highways unfold their doors |
| [03:14.69][01:37.06] |
For the ten thousand standing on Nineveh's shores |
| [03:22.55][01:44.92] |
Where the blood of a husband silences wars |
| [03:27.19][01:49.50] |
For the girl who rises to meet him |
| [03:50.90][03:32.98][01:55.52] |
And she sings |
| [03:56.37][03:52.09][03:38.84][03:34.55][02:01.20][01:56.68] |
World, I have overcomeyou |
| [04:00.76][03:43.21][02:05.50] |
World, I have overcome |
| [04:04.57][03:47.01][02:09.23] |
Bymy song and the blood of a son |
| [02:16.19] |
Ten thousand rivers |
| [02:18.11] |
Run red like my veins |
| [02:23.29] |
Where the bones of men hum |
| [02:25.78] |
Like a rattling cage |
| [02:31.38] |
For sinew to cling to |
| [02:33.74] |
And wind to remain |
| [02:39.01] |
In ten thousand lungs |
| [02:41.30] |
For ten thousand days |
| [02:46.93] |
Breathing like a choir |
| [02:48.92] |
Of holes in the ground |
| [02:50.95] |
Where the cynical have lain |
| [02:53.34] |
Where the cynical go down |
| [02:55.34] |
Save the gravity of time |
| [02:57.65] |
Lets go of her drowned |
| [02:59.86] |
Like ten thousand sparrows |
| [03:02.09] |
Unlocked and unwound |
