Lyrics:
there’s a shadow in my body and it moves through every cell the echo of a memory of a different kind of self it dances in my marrow and in every fold of grey there’s a death that we’ve been promised and a harder death we make
o God, it’s like i’m talking in my sleep and i can’t find the words i need You say that i should die to me just tell me how to keep it clean
resurrection’s rolling through me the pow’r to live again the echo of a promise of a different kind of end but i keep misdirecting the life You give to the life i left no, dying’s not the problem it’s trying to stay dead
o God, it’s like i’m talking through my teeth and i can’t find the words i mean how am i supposed to die to me when it’s the only thing i’ve been? o God, it’s like i’m talking in my sleep and i can’t find the words i need how am i supposed to die to me when it’s the only thing i’ve been?
there’s a fracture in my thinking a crack i can’t close the echo of an image of a different kind of hope i think i’ve been assuming there’s a secret to be known but knowing’s not the problem it’s wanting to be Known
o God, it’s like i’m talking in my sleep with my tongue caught behind my teeth but i’m inclined to believe You’ve given me the Word i need
