about

When I walked away from organised religion at 15 years old, it took nearly ten years for me to realise the gaping hole in my spiritual connection to the world, this song is an exploration into my position on this theme

lyrics

The light of day penetrating through
Each coloured pain with a rainbowed hue
Reminds the chill of marble stone
To honour warmth from earthly tones

I’m charmed with awe by the crafted glass
Tinged mosaics of a fabled past
My wonder alters when I realise
Transparent windows are stained with their lies

Ave vitae atque vale (hail and farewell to life)
I kneel to say
I have found my way
But I lost
My faith

I grieved my removal and purged all my scorn
No longer do I carry the sins that I’ve worn
Devotion to others for me holds no bounds
So I’ll bare all my worship to open ground

Ave vitae atque vale
I kneel to say
I have found my way
But I lost my faith

Stained glass window
