Where We Always Are

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

She arrives in fragments

A pulse beneath the pattern

Every ending is a doorway

She is opening

She is closing

The same hand turns the wheel

Pre-Chorus

And I have been here

And I will be here

Long after the form dissolves

Chorus

She begins she ends

She is always in the source

And that is where we are

That is where we always are

She begins she ends

She is always in the source

Verse 2

I watched a season fold

Into something nameless

A body becomes a river

A river becomes a name

The name becomes a silence

And the silence is the same

Pre-Chorus

And I have been here

And I will be here

Long after the form dissolves

Chorus

She begins she ends

She is always in the source

And that is where we are

That is where we always are

She begins she ends

She is always in the source

Bridge

Birth is a turning

Death is a turning

Same spiral same center

Same endless returning

I am not the wave

I am the water

Instrumental Break

Chorus

She begins she ends

She is always in the source

And that is where we are

That is where we always are

She begins she ends

She is always in the source

Outro

The source the source

The source the source
