You were born inside of a raindrop
|
I watched you falling to your death
|
And the sun, well, it could not save you
|
From falling down to the streets all wet
|
Body of water, toxic and timeless
|
Atlantic Ocean, New York skyline
|
I always get lost when I leave the village
|
So I couldn't come meet you in Brooklyn last night
|
|
But I sing glory from my lowest
|
And I will say peace to the people I meet
|
While the world waits for an explosion
|
That instant of light that wipes the slate clean
|
|
So don't be fooled, so don't be lied to
|
Love was always cruel
|
And don't act strange, don't be a stranger
|
It happened to me, now it's happening to you
|
But if you take that train underwater
|
Then we could talk it through
|
|
Well, if I could tame all of my desires
|
Wait out the weather that howls in my brain
|
Because it seems that it's always changing
|
The winds indecision, the sorrowful rain
|
|
I was a postcard, I was a record
|
I was a camera until I went blind
|
Now I'm riding all over this island
|
Looking for something to open my eyes
|
|
We will sing glory from a high rise
|
And I will say thanks if you're pouring my drinks
|
While the world waits for an explosion
|
That moment in time when we are set free
|
|
So don't stay mad, just let some time pass
|
And in the morning you awake feeling new
|
And if I don't come back
|
I mean, if I get sidetracked
|
It's only cause I wanted to
|
Keeping up with the moon on an all night avenue
|
