Lyrics

ALL FOR THE BETTER

In the beginning the world had open arms
We burst from creation impervious to harm
Sharpened like dagger in the ultraviolet dawn
Shot forward like cannon to pulverize the walls
Such was the power we had
With so much to undo before we were done
Lost in the world-
Its pitiful how wrong we were.

Sailing the ether, Archangels in flight
Eternally ageless in the dark star-splattered night
Agents of infinite change. With so much left to do before we were done
Lost in the world-
Its beautiful how wrong we were.

Because it’s all for the better, now and ever
Sooner than later, better and better
All for the better, now and ever
Sooner than later on our way right now, right now.

We were awakened with a thin and desperate sound
The dream quickly fading like a flame dying down
But in the beginning the world had open arms
We burst from creation impervious to harm
Such was the power we had felt
With so much left to do before we were done
Lost in the world-
Its beautiful how right we were.

Because it’s all for the better, now and ever
Sooner than later, better and better
All for the better, now and ever
Sooner than later on our way right now, right now, right now.
