I Remember

Patrick Park

I remember when we were one
Before we were swept into the roaring flood
When we were wide as the western sky
And even when mountains fell around us
We were calm inside

But oh, when can we go in the endless night?
When the cold is at our heels
And the dark is in our eyes

Oh, we push on
Just to get by
And we bury it all down
In the backs of our minds
But it won’t be long now
‘Til it’s uncovered
Then we are nothing
Without one another

And I can’t take back the war
That’s been going on between us for
All these reasons we can’t explain
Sparks lit the fuse
And our indifference fanned the flame

Oh, where do we go in the endless night?
When the cold is at our heels
And the dark is in our eyes

Oh, we push on
Just to get by
And we bury it all down
In the backs of our minds
But it won’t be long now
‘Til it’s uncovered
Then we are nothing
Without one another

So we push on
Just to get by
And we bury it all down
In the backs of our minds
But it won’t be long now
‘Til it’s uncovered
That we are nothing
Without one another

And I remember when we were one
Before we were swept into the roaring flood
