lyrics

I’m keepin up magic hoping you’ve had it
baby I’m a run for the front door
I been led here cross-eyed, baby it’s alright
cause I never asked for much more
And when you gonna bag it, when you gonna have it,
when you gonna get whatcha given
It’s drummin’ in sheets and drummin’ in letters,
drummin’ in tongues be singin’…


We’re scattering quicksand
and landin’ on two feet
and what of this fashion
is it pullin’ us too deep
and is there such a thing honey
does it make you scream
funny isn’t what it used to be back then
we’re dodgin’ their quicksand…


I say it’s comin in stronger
I’m shaped by the wave crashing over
You say, let go of what you think
Unclench the fist that holds me

I say it’s comin in wider
As a star will die getting brighter
You say, let go of what you think
Unclench the fist that holds me

I say it’s comin in deeper
As the silence grows me to meet Her
You say, let go of what you think
Unclench the fist that holds me…

I’m keepin up magic hoping you’ve had it
baby I’m a run for the front door
I been led here cross-eyed, baby it’s alright
cause I never asked for much more
and when you gonna bag it, when you gonna have it,
when you gonna get whatcha given
it’s drummin’ in sheets and drummin’ in letters,
drummin’ in tongues be singin’…


I say it’s comin in stronger
I’m shaped by the wave crashing over
You say, let go of what you think
Unclench the fist that holds me

I say it’s comin in wider
As a star will die getting brighter
You say, let go of what you think
Unclench the fist that holds me

I say it’s comin in deeper
As the silence grows me to meet Her
You say, let go of what you think
Unclench the fist that holds me

I say it’s comin in stronger
I’m shaped by the wave crashing over
You say, let go of what you think
Unclench the fist that holds me

Now
Fade away
Let it all down
Let it fade
Be a long while
Got it made
Let it all down
Stay awake
Stay awake

Hey
Stay awake
Let it all down
Let it fade
Be a long while
Got it made
Let it all down
Stay awake
Stay awake
