lyrics

How Long (Fran’s Song)

They say that time will heal our wounds
They say the day will see us through
So we stand here with trembling hands
Grasp hope like sand and we smile like we’re fine.
They say you breathe again today
You wake again today.

So we’ll carry the scars, and stumble through the dark,
With our stories and songs of love lost and a man on a cross
We bend to the light, kick the dust off long winter’s night.
So I say my friend, you are alive again,
You wake to grace again.

How long will this one take
How long will it take for the spell to break
How long till beauty awakes anew
And the skies blaze with azure blue over you?

They say that this will strengthen us
And the day will come when colour floods our crumbling husks
When monsters will fade with memories and first love’s wraith
So today you say I am alive again,
I will touch the sparks again.
