Beyond The Pines

Somewhere down the way
There’s a hidden place that anyone
That all of us could find
But our maps have failed
So venture through the veil and realize
That these roads are intertwined

Far beyond those walls
Gleaming black and white
Further than our false schemes
Of wrong and right
Is a field where we can walk
Leaving all our names behind

I will meet you there, beyond the pines
Templed in twilight or dawn
The light and easy air
Tracing the lines on our palms

Somewhere down the road is a place
That we can go where everyone
And everything is divine
And when we’re all awake
We can finally make and end of these
Divisions in our minds

Far beyond those walls
Gleaming black and white
Further than our false schemes
Of wrong and right
Is a field where we can walk
Leaving all our names behind

I will meet you there, beyond the pines
Templed in twilight or dawn
The light and easy air
Tracing the lines on our palms

And I will meet you there
Don’t go to sleep
Our souls and feet both bare –
With grass beneath
The oaths we needn’t swear
Are vast and deep
Our breath will be our prayer
Alone
Complete

I will meet you there, beyond the pines
Templed in twilight or dawn
The light and easy air
Tracing the lines on our palms
