Salem Hill - The Future Me lyrics

Lifetimes lost while proving the dinosaurs Ages argue faith versus fact Battle – chapter 3, verses 4 through 9 Draw it out – you can make it a war ‘Til you can't feel your core Baptized in the din of discussion Dogma and it's all in your head Sermons on my neighbors and how they fail In the end, while there's so much we lack One more easy attack One more pat on the back Like a shadow of light faintly breaking the night Nothing bright when I'm seen – more a speck than a beam And I know I'm not free One step further from the future me Like a shadow of light faintly breaking the night Nothing bright, not a gleam—more a twig than a tree Though I'm beyond the seed Still no closer to the future me Searching for my purpose while blind in the dark Nowhere in these earthly bounds found She calls me – calls my name out here in the streets See her smile and I feel my heart race But I can't see her face She takes my hand and I'm suddenly pulled inside Sits me down and she draws me some tea From the shelf beckoning dusty leathered leaves Reveal planet Earth's masterpiece Through a window I see No. A mirror to me An explosion of light waves destroying the night Reflected glory I see! Finally the true me! Now I know that I'm free Safe in steps towards the future me Keep me safe in the future. Keep me safe in Your arms.
