lyrics

Its a discarded mess of energy that crafts the northern lights
It was a broken and hurting man that lit the alter bright
He was depressed and suicidal the day the chariot arrived
If Elijah could ride through the colored sky think you will survive

It's a dark and swirling vortex so vast and unexplored
when his master stepped onto the sea he saw his faith restored
so if you see your dreams awaken far out across the sea
don't let men and insecurity cause you to sink into the deep

For they may call you broken
They just don't know how you work
when you're kicked out of temples
know that you are not the first
for if you feel abandoned
don't let law and stubborn cries
keep you from knowing loves been there
since you first opened your eyes

The dirt that tracks your footsteps is older than the lies
That society will scream at you until you break down and die
The same dust filled the travelers lungs as the leaders ignored his shame
till the pariah of his time and place shared in the suffering and pain

It's the feeling of rejection It's the unfair, unbalanced song
whether the brother who left for pleasure or the one who stayed home strong
No matter where your choices take you you will always have a home
and no matter what they think of it in their judgment, find shalom

For they may call you broken
They just don't know how you work
when you're kicked out of temples
know that you are not the first
for if you feel abandoned
don't let law and stubborn cries
keep you from knowing loves been there
since you first opened your eyes

Vagabond and ceo the wretched and the wise
are a part of this great image of the mysterious divine
At times we are both saint and sinner and when divided down it shows
we are beloved creation and we all have room to grow
