New Divide.







I was staring at the night sky again, listening to 'New Divide' over and over again. The clouds were floating across the moon. The moon was pearly white and had a red halo around it. No, actually it was a rainbow if you observed closesly enough. A some way below the moon the little red pinprick of mars was visible, glittering through the clouds.
Some clouds were faintly orangeish pink, unlike the deeper red rain clouds at night. These orangeish clouds came in heavy masses around the moon obscuring it completely . Sometimes wispy white clouds flew across the moon. When clouds surround the moon you could see the red halo distinctly.
The clouds floated by in different shapes like a continuous procession. And sometimes the clouds all moved away leaving mars blinking through the deep blue night sky. Further into the night, mars seemed to be moving down so that I could barely see it peeking through the leaves of the tree.
And slowly the clouds, now deeper red began to gather.
There were some little black clouds too. It began to rain.
I remembered black skies, the lightning all around me
I remembered each flash as time began to blur
Like a startling sign that fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard
that I get what I deserve
So give me reason to prove me wrong, to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason to fill this hole, connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies across this new divide
There was nothing in sight but memories left abandoned
There was nowhere to hide, the ashes fell like snow
And the ground caved in between where we were standing
And your voice was all I heard
that I get what I deserve
So give me reason to prove me wrong, to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
across this new divide
In every loss, in every lie, in every truth that you'd deny
And each regret and each goodbye was a mistake too great to hide
And your voice was all I heard
that I get what I deserve
So give me reason to prove me wrong, to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason to fill this hole, connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies across this new divide
Across this new divide, across this new divide
