Ex Nihilo

Set in to...
Perfect motion,
The works of your hands
Have been forgotten
Across this land
The light of your face
And your glory
Have all been erased
From this place.

Set in to perfect motion
In position and space,
The symmetry by which
It has been arranged
We are held to ground x2
Now I cry for our sake
Take this shadow away
Now I cry for our sake
Take this shadow away.

Streams turn to air
And rocks turn to dust
Only to resume
What they were initially
From dead things come life
As carbon breaks down
To create a new form it recycles itself.

Now I cry for our sake
Take this shadow away
Now I cry out for our sake
Take this shadow away
Like the dark of this day
Take this shadow away.

To look on all of this with logical reasoning,
It would be foolish to think this all happened by mistake x4
