I want to kick this off with the song Words Darker Than Their Wings by Alter Bridge. Some have described this song as a kind of "discussion of faith" between vocalists Myles Kennedy and Mark Tremonti. I think this piece reflects a transcendent vision of the human person and expresses the truth that man is made to encounter the absolute (God). Yet, man must follow the path of light in order finally to arrive at truth alone.
Alter Bridge - Words Darker Than Their Wings
WORDS DARKER THAN THEIR WINGS - ALTER BRIDGE
They say you are right
I hope that I'm wrong
I know that you tried
But still it is gone
Just don't you lose hope
I swear I've never dreamed that we're alone
But don't you let go
I swear I still believe though I don't know
Remember the years
I still walk tall
I only fear
Now I only crawl
How could I be wrong?
I hope there comes a day your fear is gone
How could we be lost?
Lost just cease to be not carry on
Into the light may you fall
Into the light may you follow
Into the light may you know
Truth alone
Into the light may you fall
Into the light may you follow
Into the light may you know
Truth alone
Truth alone
You can love someone
Go never to ask why
Or to fear again
Go find your peace tonight
Go set out towards the Sun
Let the new begin
Go soon your day will come.
Day will come
Into the light may you fall
Into the light may you follow
Into the light may you know
Truth alone
Into the light may you fall
Into the light may you follow
Into the light may you know
Truth alone
Truth alone
Truth alone
Truth alone
Truth alone
