Lyrics for A Greater Foundation (Extended Demo Version)
Reality no longer battles perception This letter's written to no one Sincere, I sought your truth and divine purpose Through myths of revelation Guidance all wrapped up in a paper box Supported only so long As my mind was the enemy And until I could not In good conscience hold on You call this shameful disbelief A process like losing my closest friend As we face distress We must not lose heart Stand fast and press on, triumph awaits As we face distress We must not lose heart Stand fast and press on, triumph awaits us The powerful constant That I had once leaned on Is no longer there, no longer But no matter how sincere my devotion, the pieces never fit As we face distress We must not lose heart Stand fast and press on, triumph awaits As we face distress We must not lose heart Stand fast and press on, triumph awaits us Sometimes we have to watch our whole lives fall apart Before we can rebuild them again A greater foundation We watch our whole lives Sometimes we have to watch our whole lives (fall apart) Before we can rebuild them again (rebuild them again) A greater foundation I wish there was another way Triumph awaits Triumph awaits Triumph awaits Triumph awaits (Triumph awaits, triumph awaits) Triumph awaits Sometimes we have to watch our whole lives fall apart Before we can rebuild them again A greater foundation We watch our whole lives Sometimes we have to watch our whole lives (fall apart) Before we can rebuild them again (rebuild them again) A greater foundation
