A shining path that stretches on into the distance   We all seek to tread, along a strange, silken thread   some are nameless, some walk aimless   some are straining their eyes, just to catch a   glimpse of grace      Elusive answers are the bane of our existence   We long for final proof so we can rest inside the   truth   who is shameless, who is blameless   who will take us by the hand & kiss the fear away      Living an ordinary mystery   Leaving a small but sacred history   Living an ordinary mystery   Leaving a small but sacred history      Our feet are drawn towards the path of least   resistance   So easy to resign until we’re blind to the divine   who will reach us, who will teach us   To open our hearts, & kiss the fear away      Living an ordinary mystery   Leaving a small but sacred history   Living an ordinary mystery   Leaving a small but sacred history      I’ve cowered long enough   I’ve fought to hide my scars   But now I’ll paint them brightly   ‘til they’re shining like the stars   silver & gold like royal treasures   are these lessons that we’ve learned   The flame is never truly beautiful ‘til after you’ve   been burned   & the story’s never finished ‘til the pages have been   turned   so read on, fear not, lead on & on & on…      Living an ordinary mystery   Leaving a small but sacred history   Living an ordinary mystery   Leaving a small but sacred history      Kiss the fear away…
