If you can't tell me apart
From a setting sun
I'll give you a hug
I'll keep it light
I'll keep it light
Don't make it all so serious
And a thousand opera singers
Working in Starbucks
Couldn't sing themselves to freedom
They couldn't sing themselves into the promised
(Ch1)
Listen to my words
Consider my lament
Hear my cry for help
God knows that I need it now
Hear me in the morning
I lay my request
I sure could use the rest
Love me more than I love myself
(V2)
Move me backward
Can I come into your house
Spread your shield
Just like a veil over me
Surrounded I call your name
Like the sweet little boy
You welcomed in
When I held out my hand
(Ch)
Consider my lament
Hear my cry for help
God knows that I need it now
Hear me in the morning
I lay my request
I sure could use the rest
Love me more than I love myself
(V3)
But I'm so heavy at heart
And my head's a ton
I'm trying to think, don't disturb
Please don't disturb
Punch that mirror
Man I'm disturbed
(Ch)
Listen to my words
(Ch2)
Listen to my words
Consider my lament
Save me from these nightmares
I don't think I can do it now
Hear me in the morning
Before a black cloud
I'm just one of a thousand
God knows that I need it now
