Spires

(album: New Normal - 2019)

'Cause you and I, we are spires, we will rise above
So when times get dire we'll be high enough
In the dark I will reach across
To find you

Said I will meet you at the spire
At the highest point, at the top of the tallest tower
Up above the noise, I will drown it out, I will be louder
From across the void, I will answer when you call
I will give my all, I will be your strength, I will be your source of power
I will keep my light on while the city sleeps around us
Although all around is danger, I will keep you safe and sound
'Cause it's only in the quiet, up so high above it all
That you realise just how small you are and how far you could fall

Take a look at what's become of us (Become of us)
But we still have so much in front of us (So much, so much)
Now it's up to us what we will become
Come what may we'll weather it together, know that we are never done

'Cause you and I, we are spires, we will rise above
We won't lie down, still got a fight in us
Put your hand into mine and I will guide you
Don't have no fear, don't have no fear

Whatever happens next ain't really up to me to say
But you should know that I'll be here beside you either way
Now there is nothing left for us except for being brave
Come what may, take my hand, I'll lead the way
Said I will meet you at the spire
At the highest point, I will bear the weight
When you get tired, I will have no fear, in the hopes that you will have none either
In the darkest night, I will be your guiding light
I will keep you on your course, just keep me in your line of sight
Take my hand, hold on tight, I have got you in my grip
Don't give up, don't let go, I promise I won't let you slip
Think how far we have climbed, now here we are, on the edge
Don't look down, don't be scared, just say my name and I'll be there, because

'Cause you and I, we are spires, we will rise above
So when times get dire we'll be high enough
In the dark I will reach across to find you
Don't have no fear, don't have no fear
'Cause you and I, we are spires, we will rise above
We won't lie down, still got a fight in us
Put your hand into mine and I will guide you
Don't have no fear, don't have no fear

And when there's no more tears to cry
Don't have no fear, don't have no fear
We will open up our weary eyes
Don't have no fear, don't have no fear
Finally overcome this fear of heights
Don't have no fear, don't have no fear
Tower up above and pierce the sky
And show them we're still here tonight

'Cause you and I, we are spires, we will rise above
So when times get dire we'll be high enough
In the dark I will reach across to find you
Don't have no fear, no, don't have no fear
'Cause you and I, we are spires, we will rise above
We won't lie down, still got a fight in us
Put your hand into mine and I will guide you
Don't have no fear, no, don't have no fear
