The Hunting Of The White Stag Songtext / Lyric

I saw the white stag

He presented himself

With a great crown of antlers

He tore up the ground

Ran down fiery lanes

Told me he's always ran with my soul

Since the cosmos was kindled

And now that we knew

We could do anything



Yeah

World stand fast and behold

Oh, I'm giving all my soul

See, I walk in the light






Fiction's fed me thus far

For the most part

Spend however long we feel we need in the

dark

Brief head pokes over the walls

Yeah, then together we stood tall

Little kid with storybooks for brains

Thought that was the be all end all



Yeah, but that's growing up, aint it?

We drink joy and taste pain

Circle round, return, ride it again

We know the words but can't speak the language

And it's hard

Forgive yesterday, oh silly yesterday

Said today

So sure, been made but you know that

Tomorrow's sure to be a smirk and a head shake

What's sure? 'Nothing', says the man in the grave



Hard speech and saplings

A young man, the only one who knows

Fruit bearer, Cloud King

And he will reign for all his flowers

Reign for all his flowers

There is no name for the stir in him

When he sees the trouble he can save

Go on and call him Woe Breaker, Saint's Bale, Debt Payer

With a stern gaze, this one means



Spirit of All, guide him

You've carried to the helm, now aid in the manning

Dream undertowed

Naught but the furious hope to earn the grace could navigate

Above below, but still under, rose enough to see that it's a choice

Hands above, head under

Clouds dance and weave in infinite potential

The surface is the youth-man line

And if dreams don't end, they die, say again

The surface is the youth-man line

And if dreams don't end...

And if dreams don't end...

And if dreams don't end...

And if dreams don't end they die



Help him understand

Grant him the courage to rise and rise well

He wills in your name

On forever in beautiful ways

Help him understand

Grant him the courage to rise and rise well

He wills in your name

On forever in beautiful ways
