Lyrics My Brightest Diamond

My Brightest Diamond

Reaching Through To The Other Side

Though there is stillness I can hear a heart beat

Though I can't see you, I can hear a sound

Through a veil I feel a hand near me

Reaching through to the other side

Reaching through to the other side

I recieve this body mine?

From womb to grave I now walk an ancient line

One foot follows the other

This stone, this finite place, is it limitless to touch the

I hear a measureless rise

It seems so wondrous just to be alive.

Hindrances, distresses of substance, I turn them over

Those forgotten, I remember, and gather them up in my arms

Like some magic thing twisted and winding, it carries me on

Oh how gorgeous! oh how gorgeous! this struggle now!

This struggle now, in time!

Reaching through to the other side
