Held in hands of glass and fire
A shadow of a dream still new
Held in hands of glass and fire
Will the light return to make this dream true?
Held in hands of dark and light
A whisper of a careless thought
Held in hands of dark and light
What realities could be wrought?
Held in hands of air and ice
A wish on breathless lips
Held in hands of air and ice
What's left in life's eclipse?
Held in hands of flesh and blood
A heart still warm and whole
Held in hands of flesh and blood
Here lies the purity of soul.

My favorite line is:
"Whats Left in life's eclipse?"
