Soar and Surrender

What climbs the height must answer how Bound to earth, with humble bow [Verse 1] Scars and tales, the bygone rush Each leap of faith, a silent hush We soared on high, where eagles dare Now grounded feet, in earth's cold care What soars high must touch the ground Though I chase that endless sound The fall feels so profound To the heavens, to the heavens Gravitating back to earth I find my worth and face the turning As stars align, they sometimes fade And fires burn to ash, a serenade The rise and dip, life's carousel But in the ebb and flow, our stories tell [Pre-Chorus] A comet's trail, from dust to crown We walk the wire, from up to down Twist of fate with gravity's pull What ascends must equal the lull We breathe the climb, we brace the slide Through cosmic law, in which we abide To the stars, to the stars, revolutions round In the dance of the sky, every rise has its bound In the silence (in the hush) I hear the whispers of the fall As the ground claims back its child (its child) Feathers strewn across the hall In this cycle (spinning round) The truth unwinds, unraveling The crescendo breaks, it starts to dim (to the earth, to the earth) Like the setting sun fades on a whim Hear the night’s encore, the curtain's call We rise like tides and to the moon, we’re enthralled [Chorus] Oh, in the cosmic give and take We find the rhythm that our hearts make Life’s pendulum, swings side to side Like the moon’s pull on ocean tides Unseen forces guide our flight Levity’s lease, it ends tonight [Verse] Bound by threads spun by the Fates We rise and sink on unseen waves [Verse] The sky's embrace falls away, solemn grace Echoes of triumph now whispers in space Just like the monarch, seasons crown then fade In this vast theatre, we all have played [Pre-Chorus] Quickening heartbeats sync to Earth's own song What soars with vigor must admit when it's wrong
