Paroles de Joy (Can't Help But Sing)

A staircase hums beneath the rain Its wooden bones remember pain The mirrors breathe with eyes of stone Yet point to roads we've never known The fields recall our softer names Their breath still carries ember flames We hear the fruit begin to sing A quiet and solemn hymn The present cracks, a sudden glow From seeds that sleep beneath the snow Silhouettes will rise, the veil will fall And show the light surrounding all Fear turns to glass inside the stream The brighter fire was always within the dream The dawn hasn't changed A thousand lights dissolve the gray As we cognify everything We're still primates Who can't help but sing As a few dark shadows fall A thousand suns ignite the walls As we cognify everything We're still conscious souls Who can't help but sing Who can't help but sing Can't help but sing Can't help but sing
