[Lyric] Not Over Soon (Justin Provencher)

A scalded man rushes toward his safety
He's running fast but his rope is moving faster still
From a door walks defeat in
But he hears a voice, "The cool air is coming soon"

Here is something to hold on to
There's more floors, but a new door will be clearer soon

And you say it's almost over
But we both know it won't be over soon

So how much longer is soon?
Will this pain come to roost?
Or will my pain now recoup?
If I trust in your route

Broken from birth, still a humble servant
But a virus, seeps into the cracks and snap
Like a child, defeated
He cries out, how can I now live for you?
You need something to hold on to
You've more steel, but my home will be pumping soon

And you say it's almost over
But we both know it won't be over soon

So how much longer is soon?
Will this pain come to roost?
Or will my pain now recoup?
If I trust in your route

And I try and I try to understand
The fate of events are not in my hands
But if I'm gonna love then you should explain to me

The why of the pain I can see in my dreams
Cause there's got to be something more than it seems
I understand faith, but is there something at all I can see

Cause this mess of a world may be from your hands
But this brain in my head's central to your plan
Because without it would love exist at all?

So it was worth the fall
To feel your love on my own
And invite you, invite you home
Woke up alone, in the darkness without you
In the distance, a small chain of lights, but what
If those lights are extinguished
But right then, another chain link illumes

Oh how the light cuts through
The dark between me and you

And you say it's almost over
But we both know, it won't be over soon

As long as I have you
I'll have a light in view
And as long as I have you
I'll sleep in quietude
