Sailship - Constellations

It’s far too early to tell
But still she’s assuming it’s too late
‘Cause she’s seen families creak and bend and break
Under the weight
And I once believed that gates and grandeur
Held in her impatient heart
As every pulse pounds through golden veins
The freckles on her face
Match the constellations in the sky

I’m through with blurring the lines
And letting my failures hold my tongue
‘Cause darling, I know
That by the grace of whatever is up there
The right words will descend upon me And I’ve done my best to break these patterns apart
In guiding the light through the deepest and darkest of thoughts
I found my way all alone
And it’s been too long to possibly hope for the best
Outside your empty room I sit
And I pray for the sake of praying

Do gates and grandeur hold in her impatient heart
As every pulse pounds through golden veins?
The freckles on her face
Match the constellations in the sky
But still she’s assuming
The gates to His glorious kingdom have closed
And she’s wondering why…
