My Brightest Diamond - Reaching Through To The Other Side Lyrics

Though there is stillness I can hear a heartbeat
Though I can't see you, I can hear a sound
Through a veil I feel a hand, near me
Reaching through to the other side
Reaching through to the other side

I receive this body mine
From womb to grave
I now walk an ancient line
One foot follows the other
This stone
This finite place
Is it limitless
To touch the boundless
I hear
A measureless rise
It seems so wondrous
Just to be alive

Hindrances
Distresses
Of substance
I turn them over
Those forgotten
I remember
And gather them up in my arms
Like some magic thing
Twisted and winding
It carries me on

Oh how gorgeous
Oh how gorgeous
To struggle now
To struggle now
In time

Reaching through to the other side
