Wrote this on the train today:
See you on the other side
Verse 1
the seasooon has changed
a whole mooonth since the rain
my throooaat is dry as a bone
i’m shaaarp as the wind
still duuumb like a kid
wonder if I’ll ever find the
tiiime to forgive
Pre
the sun goes down
so early now
has it always been this way
the dark comes out
the ghosts in town
settle in my greys
and they say
Chorus
I’ll see you on the other side
At the first sign of light
I’ll see you when the time is right
For me
I’ll see you when the call comes in
When I have the nerve to spend
My energy looking in
To you
I’ll see you on the other side
Of this turbulent flight
Of life
Verse 2
the verrrdict came down
On seismic shifting ground
Divined from a current running upstream
Do we huuunker down
Or Skiiiip this town,
The ground shakes and we start to scream
Pre2
we survived the drought
know the way out
through through through
the rain comes down
the ghosts in town
dive in the pool
Chorus
Bridge:
And if it gets darker than we’ve ever known
And we never see the stars again
We have each other and we have our holy ghosts
I love it when you say I knew you when
Verse 3:
Done allll this before
No umbrella in the storm
Never leave your peace to chance
Try teeeenderness
Take baaaaaby steps
And when the ground shakes … dance!
No matter what
when the truth comes to light
I’ll see you on the other side
