Heaven Breaks

It always starts like this
A harmless and simple thing to fix
Contagious and spreading quick
Like cracks in ice
Wholly claiming our lives
While we sleep

We'll pray for Heaven's floor to break
Pour the brightest white on blackest space
Come bleeding gloriously through
The clouds and the blue
Forcing one place from two
Killing formulaic views
Only love proves to be the truth

When heaven meets the earth
We will have no use for numbers
To measure who are and what we're worth

When Heaven meets the earth
We will have no need for mirrors
To tell us who to be
And where we fit into this awkward point of view

When angels meet the earth, may our bodies be light
When angels meet the earth, may our heavy hearts untie
When angels meet the earth, may our bodies be light
May our bodies be light for you
