We Reach Tonight
Press your finger on my pulse
Follow in the rhythm
Where flesh and bone and breath become
Beacons burning crimson
If you reach you will find
In the air as we are driven
And every star a flare to rise
Throughout our kingdom
Anywhere we’ve been, make no delay
All that is done, with this we are made
And we will hold, wherever we are
All that is ours, never so far
As you reach out for me
We hold fire to the wind
We’ll cross through lost frontiers
Touch as flames rush in
Where the path twists into shadows
It’s just a trick of light
Illusions by our side
Will not distract tonight
Anywhere we’ve been, time to make haste
All that is done, with this we are made
And we will hold, showing so clear
All that is ours, always held near
Now we’re turning hand in hand
And we push as clock hands press
We hold to every vow
In each trial and test
As the moments toll like echoes
Of our step and of our pace
They’ll call us all throughout the night
As we follow to this place
Anywhere we’ve been, time to make way
All that is done, with this we are made
And we will hold, here in our sight
All that is ours, we reach tonight
EO – most of the music here was me messing around with various reverb and distortion effects on the electric violin. A few even made it into the final mix.
