Listen to Promise Spoken by Richard Charles Stevens (Cups Suite)
Listen to Cups (Salt City City Orchestra Remix) by Underworld
∞
Grace divine
Grace divine
∞
Catching teardrops
In a locket
Lighting fuse to bottle rocket
Matching sheer drop
To the bottom of abyss
I am with you
Ne’er forgotten
Of a promise and a kiss
I am with you
In your honour
At thine wish
∞
You have my word
for Always
No matter what
to forevermore remain
∞
When creatures stir
in the hallways
Not to stop
less every devilment be slain
∞
This will be my promise
to the grave
This will be my honour
for the horrors you have faced
∞
Life and some way longer
to remain
Forevermore a scholar
of corroborating faith
∞
It would be my honour
To remain
Take this sacred promise
To the grave
∞
It would be my honour
To remain
Take this sacred promise
To the grave
∞
It would be my honour
To remain
Take this sacred promise
To the grave
∞
It would be my honour
To remain
Take this sacred promise
To the grave
∞
Tears of the Madonna
in your veins
Weeping an infinity
of dignity and grace
∞
Fittingly you flit through
light and shade
Peeking through the blinds
to another time and place
∞
Whispering affinity
to play
Skipping to the mirror
For we’re visibly the same
∞
Nigh on inexplicably
Sincere
True Real Clear
unequivocally brave
∞
Evermore relieved
To breathe again
For better or for worse
Each curse is blessèd in thy name
∞
Nevermore defeat
be entertained
Never mourned the years
of necessitated pain
∞
Fearless in the way
you overcame
Peerless in the courage
which encouraged love to reign
∞
Nourishing
on flourishing terrain
Stunning in the sun
and as becoming in the rain
∞
Stunning in the sun
and as becoming in the rain
∞
Stunning in the sun
and as becoming in the rain
∞
Catching teardrops
In a locket
Lighting fuse to bottle rocket
Matching sheer drop
To the bottom of abyss
I am with you
Ne’er forgotten
Of a promise and a kiss
I am with you
In your honour
At thine wish
∞
I am with you
In your honour
At thine wish
I am with you
In your honour
At thine wish
∞
When the skies are at their blackest
And the bitter wind chill savage
I’m your secret hidden passage
To the light
Would march tread through burning embers
To lend furthering remembrance
Of the virgin springs
Wherein we grace divine
∞
In our place
Behind the pines
Where trailing vines
Relace in twine
I am your faith
To taste the wine of agèd grape
I am the height of breaking wave
Undying blaze of naked flame
For all of my remaining days
And farther framed
∞
From faintest whisper to a scream
The waking state embracing dream
As wide awake
So deep asleep
Archival eyes confide gate keep
To subterranean degree
Unto the veins of sacred tree
I bleed the same way facing
Crystal gazing
Freed
To wait in shade beneath the famed acacia tree
Where thy art safe
To place the greatest faith in me
∞
For I am with you
At thine wish
My brave
My liege
∞
I am with you
At thine wish
My brave
My liege
∞
I am with you
At thine wish
My brave
My liege
∞
I am with you
At thine wish
My brave
My liege
∞

∞
Whispering affinity
to play
Skipping to the mirror
For we’re visibly the same
∞
Forevermore a scholar to the faith
That in your eyes
The tide will rise again
∞
In your eyes
The tide will rise again
∞
In your eyes
The tide will rise again
∞
Forevermore a scholar to the faith
That in your eyes
The tide will rise again
∞
There will be storms
They will be fierce
And true to form
You’ll face your fears
Embrace the hail
Prevail
Refresh
Each storm to pass
When clouds undress
At behest of blest address
You wrest the more from scores of less
Bereft the stress that second guessing tends to overstretch
No less possessed by fresh beginnings
All five senses sense you’re winning
Even when your head is spinning
Blessèd essence is refilling
Overspilling with the willing to see every dream fulfilling
At your leisure
Buried treasure
Ferries pleasure
To each tether never severed less endeavoured to remember whichsoever liquid measure lifts the zephyr
With the drift to live forever
∞
Catching teardrops
