Story Behind The Song
I wrote this after hearing about a lot of tragic events in the news... it is meant to be an inspiration for change.
Song Description
This song explains what would happen if we don;t change our ways and learn to love one another and forget our petty differences. The chorus is a call to arms to stop the sensless hatred we have for one another. 4/4 tempo, dynamic and very melodic. Abrupt key change at the end symbolizes the change we need to make in order to live in a better world.

Lyrics
Revelation
Let's say for every day that dies, for all those wasted lives
A ripple in the sky grows
And from that tear we are, showered by falling stars
And the dreams of those we've known
Let's say for every deadly sin, and every evil grin
The seeds of our fate are sown
But when the smoke does clear, will we become more sincere?
Or will we choose to walk alone?
Now gather all your strength and draw the line
We cannot breach these walls unless we try
Let's say for every single time we give in and fall behind
The sun becomes dim and cold
And without warmth or light, we can't navigate the night
And all our fears become whats foretold
Let's say for every man and child, for every mother's smile
We play the cards this world has dealt
We'll rebuild all the parts, defining who we are
And everything within ourselves
Now gather all your strength and draw the line
We cannot breach these walls unless we try
Now gather all your strength and draw the line this time
I feel we're getting close
Let's bridge this gap and hope
We can find our way back home
Now feel this ressurection
We need this revelation
