lyrics

Inevitable unceasing storm
Bend or break true to form

You fail and fail, pressed down and down
Sight the throne lose the crown

After it's done, after you bleed
Say 'tis better bend like the reed

Better to break than shut your eyes
Never to dream better to die

After you fail, just 'fore the end
Say 'tis better, bend in the wind

But reeds do not
The heavens reach
Reeds do not
The heavens reach
