The Usher from More Constant Than The Gods

All of my life, I’ve been waiting for you Come lay down your head, rest in my arms, you’re free tonight You’re in the eyes of those whose luck has run out A tender end to a life of descent Every lawman knows that you cannot be argued Even despots know that when they die, you’ll rule still You’re supreme, immutable, unchanging You’re never-failing through the ages You are the usher at the unknown portal You stand silent among the din and clamor All of my life, I’ve been waiting for you With open arms, I’ll come running towards you You’re supreme, immutable, unchanging You’re never-failing through the ages You’re more constant than the stars Because they change their paths with the seasons You’re more constant than the moon Because she hides her face in the shadows You’re more constant than the sun Because one day her embrace will melt the Earth You’re more constant than the gods Because sometimes when we call, they don’t answer at all All in all, we end the same (Come lay down your head, rest in my arms, you’re free tonight)
