Grace I followed this bell into the valley of loss Entered the absence through a crack in the shell Waited so long for the destruction of dreams And waiting for the clarity that can never fail Though I try still the rain's a fact On a street that runs in every direction After the absence of your violent grace Racing black and fiery in pursuit of perfection Oh and god when I can see the kites Like hot prayers rising in the steam of the night Let me rise to understand by convection Now the horror is vision and a sacred infection
