The Gift (Lone Justice)

You can trip smug smiling in your worn-out shoes Cast away the rhythm of eternity's fugue Grapple with the tongue of hope till it abandons you But you can't deny a gift Falter at the well, making heroes out of ghosts Stuffing yourself on thankless boasts But I have faith in your withering soul 'Cause you can't deny a gift Oh, no, you can't deny a gift A gift of one and a gift to all The wings to soar and not to fall A gift of light in the abyss Higher ground above the pit The choice to live that is a gift That is a gift, that is a gift, that is a gift Though this gift lacks frivolous flair It doesn't sparkle in the sun and requires little care It's one of volume enough to spare Throw down defense and we will share Throw down defense and we will share A gift of one and a gift to all The wings to soar and not to fall A gift of light in the abyss Higher ground above the pit The choice to live that is a gift That is a gift, that is a gift, that is a gift A gift of one and a gift to all The wings to soar and not to fall A gift of light in the abyss Higher ground above the pit The choice to live that is a gift That is a gift, that is a gift, that is a gift That is a gift, that is a gift, that is a gift
