Lyrics

Throw open the floodgates,

Expressing a desire to experience a flood of emotions or divine presence.

We want to feel Your love!

An earnest plea to feel the love of a higher power or deity.


But haven't I been waiting?

Questioning the duration of waiting for a response or change.

Haven't I been getting up from falling dreams

Repetitive instances of overcoming challenges or setbacks symbolized by falling dreams and difficulties.

And slipping on the frozen streams I build my towers on?

Struggling to build something significant on unstable foundations.

Haven't I been praying for these moments

Seeking divine intervention during moments of adversity.

Where You pick me up and throw me down again?

Experiencing a cycle of being lifted up only to be brought down again.


Touch the coal to my lips

Metaphorically asking for purification or absolution before facing consequences.

Before the curses fall.

Requesting a momentary reprieve before facing hardships or negative outcomes.


Haven't I been waiting for the hour when the seasons change for good?

Longing for a definitive change in life circumstances or situations.

Haven't I been getting up with bullet wounds and broken limbs and sores?

Enduring and persisting through physical and emotional pain.

Haven't I been praying for the strength to make a sound?

Asking for the strength to vocalize emotions or concerns.


Throw open the floodgates,

Reiteration of the desire for an overwhelming experience of emotions or divine presence.

We want to feel Your love!

Continuing the plea for feeling divine love.


We will meet You with hands holding palms

Expressing a readiness to approach divinity with open hands.

And we won't stop marching

Determined persistence in a journey or quest.

Till our hearts kiss the hilt of Your sword...

Willingness to continue the journey until encountering or embracing divine intervention, even if it comes in a form that may seem intimidating or threatening.
