Souls Lyrics
Messages from where I used to grow
Twenty-thousand frames of mind
This is my soul
Relentless where I'm most alone
Twenty-thousand faceless names
This is your show
And oh I feel I'm a wandering
fleeting transient
Soul
All I feel is I am holding on
Only for a moment then it's gone
Covenant
We will always grow
Our skin will fade transcend beyond
All we've been told
I feel I'm a wandering
fleeting transient
Soul
All I feel is I am holding on
Only for a moment then it's gone
And oh all I feel is I am holding on
Only for a moment then it's gone
Heal me
I'm healed when you see me
You see me when you feel me
Souls
All I feel is I am holding on
Only for a moment then it's gone
And oh all I feel is I am holding on
Only for a moment then it's gone
It's gone
Twenty-thousand frames of mind
This is my soul
Twenty-thousand faceless names
This is your show
fleeting transient
All I feel is I am holding on
Only for a moment then it's gone
We will always grow
Our skin will fade transcend beyond
All we've been told
fleeting transient
All I feel is I am holding on
Only for a moment then it's gone
Only for a moment then it's gone
I'm healed when you see me
You see me when you feel me
All I feel is I am holding on
Only for a moment then it's gone
Only for a moment then it's gone

The best song on an otherwise abundantly superior album best describes this one. Really makes a person wonder how Chantal K is constrained mainly to the Canadian market...
In any case, I interpret this as a sense that a person is nothing but their memories--many slices of time that define us, and transient in the sense that once we're dead, that's it; we die, those who knew us will, too, and nobody cares. This contrasts with what we're told about getting into heaven (hence the reference to Covenant and transcending and this being "your show").
Many people have such thoughts. Few can relay it in such a solid song, though!
