Beyond the Pines
Somewhere down the way, there's a hidden place that anyone
That all of us could find
But all our maps have failed, so venture through the veil and realize
That these roads are intertwined
Far beyond those walls, gleaming black and white
Further than our false schemes of wrong and right
Is a field where we can walk
Leaving all our names behind
I will meet you there, beyond the pines
Templed in twilight or dawn
The light and easy air
Tracing the lines on our palms
Somewhere down the road is a place that we can go where everyone
And everything is divine
And when we're all awake, we can finally make an end of these
Divisions in our minds
Far beyond those walls, gleaming black and white
Further than our false schemes of wrong and right
Is a field where we can walk
Leaving all our names behind
I will meet you there, beyond the pines
Templed in twilight or dawn
The light and easy air
Tracing the lines on our palms
And I will meet you there - don't go to sleep
Our souls and feet both bare - with grass beneath
The oaths we needn't swear are vast and deep
Our breath will be our prayer - alone - complete
And I will meet you there, beyond the pines
Templed in twilight or dawn
The light and easy air
Tracing the lines on our palms
And I will meet you there, beyond the pines
Templed in twilight or dawn
The light and easy air
Tracing the lines on our palms
I'll meet you there
