[00:17.660]On a pitch black night with gossamer wings
[00:30.490]Beating out just around the edges
[00:46.020]A golden albatross burst onto the scene
[00:54.780]Like arrows filled with fire poking holes in my dreams
[01:02.280]Making way for a mountain and a river flowing free
[01:14.160]I hear bells
[01:23.230]Closer than my skin
[01:48.430]A silver tone pierced a stock-still night
[01:59.940]The clapper struck the bell with thunder
[02:15.780]Its echoes filled the earth with violent shaking sounds
[02:24.550]The people woke and stood on hill and hallowed ground
[02:31.990]The sound so bright it released them from their shadows
[02:45.180]I hear bells
[02:53.030]Closer than my skin
[03:10.060]A coal laid on my tongue
[03:18.200]A vision broke my thumbs
[03:26.370]A golden thorn pierced my scorn
[03:42.780]And a newer light is born
[04:14.610]A man pulls back the string on a single bow of bronze
[04:26.070]It was fitted with the sharpest of arrows
[04:42.310]He aimed it toward the void
[04:47.150]He aimed it to destroy
[04:50.840]The crippling lies of cynics and fools
[04:58.860]Yet the tip was filled with seeds
[05:03.070]Which grew up into mighty trees
[05:06.670]And the forest came back up around the city
