SHOW ME THE GLORY



Show me the glory all in all

The angel
The power
The love—you can’t!

But I can tell you of my dearest friends
And of the widow and the child
The name I chose for myself is written here
The pain—look at my broken bones!

What failed had strength, and what fell had pride
Enough to fit a coffin as great as this bed
My fame was born when I lost my mind
I won your heart—the eye of it!

Purest delight is now to taste
The last sigh, the last tear is welcome anytime
I will have no lifetime aim
Until the final hour comes!

    Failures and fallings
    what do they mean
    but simply life's delete buttons

    why?
    for what?
    how?

    all meaning
    all truth
    all strength
    all that matters

    lie
    beyond broken bones
