What Will Come

The windows are broken, and the dust lies on the floor
And your footsteps make a circle
Then disappear where you turned and stood at the door
You’re right to rise up, you’re right to go home
And I wish I could follow
I am calling you now
Reach down, reach down
Reach through the powder, reach through the air
Reach down to teach us, our hands are burned bare
Reach down from heaven, reach into our lungs
Reach down with fire, reach down with rage
Reach for the open endless blue space
Reach for the people who look up from beneath
God save us
Save us
Save us
Save us
From what will come
