Afterglow

Blisters on the fingers
Fire in the heart
Bleeding, heeding
Strives to keep it sharp

We’re pledged to see it grow
You’ll find it in the show
Revering, fearing
What we were due to know

And as the world around
Make an awful sound
Find the way to carry on

A treasure’s never broken
A strength won’t let it fall
It’s seeding, believing
Obliged to heed the call

Possession I don’t know
The caring of the roe
Excession [?], confession
After work comes afterglow

As the world around
A gentle [?] safe and sound
Find the way to carry on

And as the world around
Make an awful sound
We find our way to carry on
