Eleven rings of fire
Surround us in desire
And as we fall together
The flames they just grow higher

Eleven Pins and needles
Cut and tear our dreams
Then sew us back together
Teaching what love means

Eleven blocks of darkness
Stack and build between
Try to block our vision
Confusing what we’ve seen

Eleven tribes of men
Form an army in our minds
But they can never conquer
A love they cannot find

Eleven pools of wine
Fill our glass by night
Drown us in emotion
And question what is right

Eleven dancing angels
Watch us in our sleep
Remind us of the truth
And the love we’ll fight to keep.

The age of Eleven
