Judee Sill The Living End Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Did you hear a crystalline cry shaking the quiet sky?
Echoing far, echoing wide
Or was it just a silent good bye from a heart bound and tied?
Tempered and fired and tried

[Chorus 1]
Hear that rumbling in this fateful wind
With towers crumbling and giving in, I just wonder when
There's gonna be a rolling, tumbling new day coming
It'll be the living end

[Verse 2]
Once I stood apart and alone under the daytime moon Looking way down into the sky
Was it just my screaming white bones or Gabriel's clarion horn?
Open and undenied

[Chorus 2]
Fire of heaven, it's sink or swim
By lightning riven, by grace we're in, I just wonder when
There's gonna be a rolling, tumbling new day coming
It'll be the living end

There's gonna be a rolling and tumbling new day coming
It'll be the living end
