Movement VI - Innocence Lyrics

Morissette Alanis
Miscellaneous
Movement VI - Innocence
Alanis in French, Salif Keita in Mali, w/ The English Chamber Chorus in French

By moon we gather
For the ascension
Great sky shelter us
With your endless compassion

Last survivor
It is you who must pass
Into the light of the new world

Under a sky of innocence
We are now all dying
In a slow black rain
Was it a failure
Of man and angels?
Was it a failure of love?

From this human river
Too cruel for winter
Welcome to the gates
A rehearsal for the silence
Pray we do not enter

Under a sky of innocence
[ Morissette Alanis Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
We bathe in the seduction
Beautiful
The light is unraveling now
We open our arms to it

It is close to ground zero

I am no one
Yet I am everyone

We are nothing, but we are all
When I am still, I am inspired

We are not yet born

Half sadness
But half choice

When I am still I can hear
You speak most clearly

Father can you help me
For the ocean is big
And my boat is small

Find the courage
