Voices

I hear the voices coming closer
I hear the voices coming close to me
I hear the horses over water
I hear the whisper of an ancient sea

Either now we live or we won’t
We are ghosts on islands
Either now we live or we don’t

I hear your voice, it’s coming closer
I hear your voice, it’s coming close to me
I hear the horses over water
I hear the whisper of your cavalry

Either now we live or we won’t
We are ghosts on islands
Either now we live or we don’t

Either now we live or we won’t
We are ghosts on islands
Either now we live or we don’t

We move the earth to harness that high
And darkened mess
And the void did light up in us
We woke like gods, all seeing
A tethered call and you left
And the void was all that there was

I hear the voices coming closer
I hear the voices coming close to me
I hear the horses over water
I hear the whisper of an ancient sea
I hear your voice, it’s coming closer
I hear your voice, it’s coming close to me
I hear the horses over water
I hear the whisper of your cavalry
