Revelation Lyrics

V1

Instead you hollow out my shelter,

Carve for me a stronghold

Build me up a tower, it’s not quite time to be bold

Gather more reserves, call in the reinforcement

Watch, wait, listen for the hour

CH1

Hopin’ for a revelation

Waitin’ on the conflagration

Hopin’ for a revelation

Waitin’ on, waitin’ on

V2

Instead you hollow out my shelter,

Carve for me a stronghold

Build me up a tower, it’s not quite time

not quite time, not quite time, not quite time…

CH2

Stronger, stronger

If you hold me back, you’d better make me stronger

Stronger, stronger

If you hold me back come on and make me stronger

Stronger, stronger

If you hold me back, you’d better make me stronger

Oh— 

BR

Feels like I’m on this glorious threshold

Who knows how long I’ll have to stand

Tell me how long to hold my breath

Tell me what more could this demand?

When I finally, finally step out

Finally reach these trembling hands,

I wonder if I’ll even remember longing for this chance

CH2
