The Ending is where it starts

by richard

So I was mowing the lawn this afternoon, listening to some Eric Peters on my iPod. I listened to his song The Ending, and then-whether it be something in the water or air I cannot say- I thought, ‘man… that’s very NT Wrightish!” What say ye?

The Ending
Eric Peters

Today came in earnest with a smile on its face
Wry as it was cunning, and pure as it was base

Now our days are numbered like the sands in the sea
I held on to hopin’ as long as hope held on to me
It came with a thunder but it made not a sound
It came down like an angel from heaven to the cold, cold ground

Don’t say its over when the worlds gone mad
I’ve seen the ending and its not so bad
Don’t say its over when you lose your heart
Because the ending is where you start

The world lost its reason and the sky laid to waste
All that was hopeless is born on your face
Hurts every moment in the fight for your life
But keep your chin up hopin’ cause its the life of the fight

Don’t say its over when the worlds gone mad
I’ve seen the ending and its not so bad
Don’t say its over when you lose your heart

I wanna know why we fall so hard
And why hope for tomorrow can seem so far
Away

Don’t say its over when the worlds gone mad
I’ve seen the ending and its not so bad
Don’t say its over when you lose your heart
Cause the ending is where
The ending is where we start

Don’t say its over
Don’t say its over

I’ve seen the ending and its not so bad
