Take A Moment Lyrics

We think that everything is great

We live on standby and our hearts they slowly palpitate

A viscous pattern has emerged

One born of apathetic thoughts and idle words

We should know

Which way to go

Take a moment

Find a quiet place

Breathe in breathe out

Truly contemplate

Feel the wind

Hear the sounds

Close your eyes

So profound

A raging river

Formed from tiny drops of rain

A fire begins to break through

Calloused prison walls

Loving, Living, Sacrifice

Teacher, I owe you my life

I can see your face on a radiant cloud

Hear your voice on a morning bough

If you think you're alone

You're not

We all have shared this grief

And been tied into knots

Seeking the answers

From the great divide

When we can't even calculate

The epic size

We can't grow

When we think we're in control

Take a moment

Feel the stones weight in your hand

Knuckles white, holding tight

Our condemning might

Unfurl your fingers

Drop the rock

Take a breathe

Overcome the shock

Of pressure lifted

Steam through vents once trapped within

A fire begins to break though

Calloused prison walls

Loving, Living, Sacrifice

Teacher, I owe you my life

I can see your face on a radiant cloud

Hear your voice on a morning bough

We should know

Which way to go
