Intervention from Intervention by Exit Angles

there was a night
and in the sky there was a rip
it was a rip or it was a tear
and through that hole they could hear
your cries and your tears
your weakness and your fears
they all descend, they all descend
they all descend, they all descend

and now you came around through intervention
you had been left all alone
your own detention
you knew you had to turn it around
your world was dying
the people they wanted you to stick around
you saw them crying

and on that night what did you find
a sudden peace came to your mind
you could let go of all your fears
it was like a voice that you could hear
said you were free to go from here
just watch your steps and be aware
they all descend they all descend
they all descend, they all descend

and now you came around through intervention
you had been left all alone
your own detention
you knew you had to turn it around
your world was dying
the people they wanted you to stick around
you saw them crying

nothing left for us but surrender
(no use trying)
to resist the weight of this pressure
(no denying)
this natural pull of gravitation
(we can realize)
our spirit has remained disguised through time
(like it’s been hiding)
