Howling Light

All is well
You passed out of our thoughts so long ago
I sat across your other son and listened as he told me so
Howling into glacial light
Deafening in the wake as your waking days unwind
But now the living are alive
Oh, alive, alive, alive, alive
Oh, alive, alive, alive, alive
Oh, alive, alive, alive, alive
Oh, oh, oh
I can recall a time before the longing to redeem
All would be forgiven by your daughter when you leave
Yet not all of us will be
Oh, alive, alive, alive, alive
Oh, alive, alive, alive, alive
Oh, alive, alive, alive, alive
Oh, oh, oh
