He showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.

— Revelation 22:1

I saw a mother and her daughter 
each on different phones
When they collided in their cars 
they each broke different bones
and they heard different tones

I asked my brother why he 
fought her when she was so mad
He said he just did not believe 
he was the things she said
And I know his was the blood we shed

So tell me about the revolution
How we come around
We start again before 
we even touch the ground 

In the revolution
How we come again
A new beginning follows
every bitter end

You told me it was true
I would have another chance with you

In the mirror
a reflection that I recognize
I know that hair
I know that skin 
I know those empty eyes
A face I’ve so despised 

I know my heart
I know my soul
I know what I can do
I know that I could never 
make it here without you
And I know I’m without you

I’m washed away without you
I don’t know where I am
I don’t know how I got here
(without you)

There on the mountains is
a man with mercy in his eyes
He leads an army to the River 
and the Tree of Life
He fills the world with light
