I walk inside
A canvas of stone
The brushstrokes appear on all sides
I see the sweat the muscle and the heartache
I see the eternal light

Your lines flow like music
The archways take on the melody
Your art is an honor to remember
Your building claims its history

Chorus
Was this act of leisure?
Giving others mere delight
Or was this to create a feeling
Of light, of eternal life
(Repeat)

Did you know the impact you would have
This hundreds of years gone by
To be lost in a world of glorified walls
And capture your passion with an inarticulate eye

I never knew living things stood still
I swear your cathedrals breaths air
With rays of perfect light
Shining through
No other can compare

Chorus
Was this act of leisure?
Giving others mere delight
Or was this to create a feeling
Of light, of eternal life
(Repeat)
