Listen closely with open ears
You will learn more than you hear
Singing a tune, soft and light
Drawing you subtly near.
Their words, divine and pure,
wronged for all their good,
because the anxious ears they fall upon
don’t know them like they should.
The angels weep for mercy
On this unfortunate, misled soul,
to grasp at all the knowledge,
and fill the gaping hole.
The truth is quite simple,
But words will not suffice;
The soul must be willing
To give this sacrifice.
Forgiveness is a wonder
That many cannot define
It rumbles through our hearts
And creates the world, divine.
But it’s all over now,
It’s all gone, you see,
No more crying
Our hearts are free.
The angels still weep
But we cry no more
we’ve turned down the lights
and we’ve closed the door
You will learn more than you hear
Singing a tune, soft and light
Drawing you subtly near.
Their words, divine and pure,
wronged for all their good,
because the anxious ears they fall upon
don’t know them like they should.
