Dark at noon The air was like glass And I was walking right beside you There's nothing beneath us But the white grass Frost at your toes and your fingers are cold I'm feeling wine dark Over and Done Shoulder to Shoulder Lying down I am he I am your blood You're all that I need Hold your soul in the old, in this gold I've been found in this way But they won't let me stay No, no, no, situate And erase how I've been, this is only a new friend I've been found, I've been sold Is it great? So you know. And this sound that you hear Is my drum in your ear And you forgot my name But the words came the same You are here in my land And we won't meet again cause your not in my way You are not here to stay Let it be Man of War This is not how you were

I've got a basement in Chicago With plenty of space for all our friends, if we want You can ballerina down the stairs, I don't care I just want you to feel at home If you thought that I was being quiet I was trying to be alone And I don't mean to offend you, darling But I warned you, I'm the worst at talking I can't see the difference between A skyline and mountains of evergreens I can't tell the difference between A mouse in the attic and a creak from the house Come your hair up, cut it off Limited light shines upon you Underneath your feathery pillows And all of your caramel sheets You are the poster child Prepped blonde hair, Volcano Smile You are, You are, You are, You are If you thought that I was being quiet I was trying to be alone And I don't mean to offend you, Darling But I warned you, I'm the worst at talking I can't see the difference between A skyline and mountains of evergreens I can't tell the difference between A mouse in the attic and a creak from the house If you thought that I was being quiet I was trying to be alone And I don't mean to offend you, Darling But this isn't how it goes

Curled up and waiting Oh God, Where are You now? Staying up late for saying, "I am the one who saw you come down" But instead I saw them rise Those assumed forgotten Beneath us, Always watching He has has not forgot them He has not forgot them Lovely, sing through the night Abraham's children unbroken Together as they rise Singing, "truth He hath spoken" Singing, "truth He hath spoken" He has not forgotten He has not forgot them He has remembered me He has remembered me

I'm tired of confusion I'm tired of not knowing I'm tired of not growing And living in the dark It's hard to talk when you lack understanding You were never so demanding You were never so commanding And I'd like it if you'd stop But you talk like there's no one else out there And I just can't live with that I'm tired of decisions All of these revisions Are tearing me apart But then you talk like there's someone else out there Like there's somebody else out there Like there's somebody else out there
