white
light unknown your demands are downright unreasonable i mean you’ve got
to be kidding right all this stuff about losing your life you’re insane get out
of my way i’ve seen great occurrences and i’ve seen miracles and i always knew
you were more than a friend but now you tell me that it’s all gonna end in three
days you’ll be back again yeah right whatever in the white light unknown i like
it in here i don’t want to go home you took us up your favourite hill confided
all and showed us what you’d always promised us our fathers i said why don’t we
just pitch a tent talk about old times and never return to the world into which
we were sent and i’d like to forget in the white light unknown i like it in here
i don’t want to go home but beneath the blackened stone it’s cold outside and
i don’t want to do this alone how come i say the dumbest things at all the wrong
times should shut my mouth and just enjoy the white light while it lasts a little
glimpse of the past and your government to come yeah seeing what you want being
the only thing that’s done in the white light unknown i like it in here i don’t
want to go home but beneath the blackened stone it’s cold outside and i don’t
want to do this alone in the white light unknown it’s time to take it all back
home cause i don’t think you wanted things this way and i want you back and i
want us to want you to stay inhabit afraid to walk when it’s not on water afraid to take the
ground on again and i want to say i will never leave her i want the freedom to
say i will stay inhabit the signs are fading on the freeway and the fear is catching
up again and i promise you that i won’t let it control me if you promise not to
ask me to explain inhabit we caught the sea air in the early morning always knew
it was there just stepped out of the car spirit unknown as we take a few steps
ahead come all the closer and don’t let us down don’t let us let ourselves down orion i need you to drive to take me back tonight i said so i
said it cause it’s true i’m waiting for you i am lost without you i need you to
drive to take me back tonight i said so i said it cause it’s true i’m waiting
for you amber time enough to me question in my head is are you ready
to leave too soon i am with you under the arms of the station clock stay or go
stay or go stay or go gone figure so you call far from home a start again on your own last
time that i turn around scared to death of saving grace out of reach out of place
last time that i turn around fall asleep fall away out of love out to play last
time that i turn around everyone is the one everyone after all is said is done is chosen to save the
day everyone is the one yeah yeah tree song it covers over the road staking its claim but not taking
it back i think it know what we have taken and what we still lack its seen a thousand
seasons through its seen a thousand seasons through son of everyone sunday morning i am mistaken cause i am nothing you are
nothing and you don’t see my flight through the skylight i am falling not fallen
if you are the son of everyone then we are the lost and lonely ones you are there
and you are not silent so say something useful don’t say that sequence is not
important and that you live and work in slow motion if you are the son of everyone
then we are the lost and lonely ones i’m so tired of all your mistakes and of
you laughing in my face i am so tired of this disgraceful world i’m so tired of
all my mistakes and you living in my father’s face i am so tired of living in
this world if you are the son of everyone then we are the lost and lonely ones here beside i care a lot i don’t care at all my heart is hot my heart
contains nothing at all and i have been frozen since you said this is not a game
but you know my problem has always been the same it’s when the educated guess
is all that’s left it’s all you’ve got and i’m still terrified of pain and of
the cost the risk of loss and when investigation ends will i be blameless in your
eyes will you be here beside me tonight i’m giving up never giving in i’m backing
out i’m backing myself into a corner that i can never escape from that i can never
choose to leave it’s the only way that i’ll grow to move myself that i know cause
even after all this time it’s you and i and we’re still on our own with the educated
guess that’s all we’ve left it’s all we’ve got and i’m still terrified of pain
and of the cost the risk of loss and when investigation ends will i be blameless
in your eyes will you be here beside don’t say you won’t say goodbye when it’s
over say that you’ll stay here beside don’t say you won’t say a word when it’s
over say that you’ll stay here beside and when investigation ends will i be blameless
in your eyes will you be here beside me tonight walk or run whether we walk or whether we run whether we split or whether
we’re one i’ll cut out my eyes i’ll swallow my pride and if you were thinking
of taking the easy way out yeah i don’t think i’d hear you even if you were to
shout i’ll cut out my eyes i’ll swallow my pride and i won’t be waiting here anymore
i’m dying a death i’m lying at your door talitha k you’ve heard this story told before you’ve heard this story
told four times before but here it is again for you it’s clear and simple beautiful
and true i have a little girl i love she fell asleep i thought it was more than
it was and i’d heard a story about a man i thought if this is true then he is
her last chance i put her life in his hands but i didn’t know his name i found
him and i grabbed his hand i found him and i hoped he’d understand but just as
we were about to go he turned cause someone sick had touched his coat so i stood
there waiting patiently while he wasted time talking to this old lady and then
walked in a friend of mine he said i’m sorry you might as well leave him behind
not long ago your daughter died but i didn’t know his name still didn’t know his
name or why he followed me home he said she’s only sleeping soon everyone was
leaving then all i heard him say was talitha k did i tell you his name do you
know his name or why he came hold your stare and any time now your eyes will look this way or retreat
to the side and infiltration is impossible as long as i’m guarded inside and i
can feel this that i can beat this that i can see through you and i never undone
yeah undercovers as one and someday soon i will hold your stare as long as i am
alive and i can feel this that i can be this that i will see through you and i
can feel this at last i can know this that i will see you through and any time
now your eyes will look this way or retreat to the side disappointed i am not afraid i am not a murderer i am not alone i am
not loaded if you could see me now would you be disappointed if you could see
me now would you think your seed was wasted shame put me to shame until i know your name again put me to
sleep if this is one promise you don’t keep put me away if what you’ve said is
not what i say put me down get me here away from elder son put me to rest if this
is just another graceless test put me to death if with stretched arms you only
measured breadth i am your elder son i am your elder son i am your faithful one this tension this tension is trust this tension is love this tension
is patience this tension is the broken spirit of expectation the mindful absence
of wishful thinking this silence is relationship this silence is our health and
strength this silence won’t last this silence is the broken spirit of expectation
the mindful absence of wishful thinking the patience to wait with the awkward
questioned the minefield avoidance of regulation |
