Damage has defined our border
All that matter forged in flame
Knowing little of your wounding
Share our mending all the same
Weight of words and wars we carried
I'm like you, just like you
Eyes of secret and storm and story
But shared, and well, we'll make it through
Sadness like a pendulum
Pulls us round and to and fro
Onus Fate and Undo Odium
Armor, anchor, lead and stone
By the telling let them become
Will they all be feathers?
Eyes of secret storm and story
Show and tell, we'll make it through
Onus Fate and Undo Odium
Armor, anchor, lead and stone
By the telling
may they become
May they all be feathers
All that matter forged in flame
Knowing little of your wounding
Share our mending all the same
Weight of words and wars we carried
I'm like you, just like you
Eyes of secret and storm and story
But shared, and well, we'll make it through
Sadness like a pendulum
Pulls us round and to and fro
Onus Fate and Undo Odium
Armor, anchor, lead and stone
By the telling let them become
Will they all be feathers?
Eyes of secret storm and story
Show and tell, we'll make it through
Onus Fate and Undo Odium
Armor, anchor, lead and stone
By the telling
may they become
May they all be feathers

To me this song is about an a lot of things having to do with war, political unrest and oppression and seems to be very timely with how our nation is a mess at this time.
::::Wall and anger, armor, stone By the telling may they become May they all be feathers:::::
this chorus sums it all up to me, basically as a nation, as a whole we are angry and the anger is like armor or stone and we need to find a way to come to some form of peace so if we communicate (by the telling) and find a way to take some meaningful action we can find peace (feathers), in all this unrest and terrorism our world currently is drowning in
