A Beginning Lyrics by The Dear Hunter

Act V: Hymns With the Devil in Confessional

2016

[Produced by Casey Crescenzo]
[Verse 1]
The silence dominates, divining resolutions from my hands
Lines drawn in the sand
But my volition's wry, my temperance twisted, faced with failing light
Nothing in my sight
[Chorus 1]
If I fall into the ocean, send my soul into the sea
Will these reflections trouble me? Will I dream my final dream?
[Verse 2]
I sensed this silhouette who's standing vigil growing very sore
Just one moment more
Before I close the curtain, fate uncertain; spirit to the dark
Endlessly apart
[Chorus 2]
Can I fall into the ocean, send my soul into the sea?
No distant echoes haunting me, no further phantoms will I see
This silence held eternally
[Bridge]
But what if the silence is broken by the ones you've loved
Incredibly present, with a heavenly breath to wake you up
With nothing left to poison, a portrait of who I've become
Only elation remains, protecting us from this neverending night
[Outro]
Dear apparition, while my senses last
Is absolution far too much to ask?
Will you forgive a truly troubled past?
The silver lining still remains, the sights I've left to see
So trust that with this end, a new beginning's waiting patiently
[Instrumental]
