“On a Crescendo” Lyrics
Written by David Michael Bennett
F
Before long
C
They will build a city along
Dm
all the sky and anchor it tight
Bb
to this rock so we can sail right out of here
F
Faux nights
C
fade right into our existence
Dm
as we travel up the tethers
Bb
start to float a little as we reach our end
F C Dm Bb
F
The sky bleeds
C
we mend it near the constellations
Dm
the dying giants feel their fears
Bb
slowly get built away today
F
All us
C
in our own known lives
Dm
Now have a chance to shine bright
Bb
and we will all be dancing in that light
F
Dancing in that light
C
Dancing in that light
Dm Bb
Dancing in that light
F C
On a crescendo
Dm Bb
making the best of it all
F C
On a crescendo
Dm Bb
now we can fly and not fall
Fm
All overnight
Cm
we could lose sight
Dm
But we have heard our screams
Bbm
And woe isn't happening
Fm
Darker days may have been
Cm
a little more hectic back then
Dm
But we now have the tools
Bbm
and our sorrows melt to pools
F C Dm Bb
F C
On a crescendo
Dm Bb
making the best of it all
F C
On a crescendo
Dm Bb
now we can fly and not fall
F C
On a crescendo
Dm Bb
making the best of it all
F C
On a crescendo
Dm Bb F
now we can fly and not fall
