Quietly sitting here, just waiting for the sun Waiting in that precious garden Quietly ponder 'bout these clouds, they gather randomly Reflecting in dark unknown waters Do you believe me now? I'm shot down in the corner, out of sight I lost my redeeming highs I'm swaying in the longest goodbye Come hell or high water Come show me your wildest of fears We're losing to dusk now We're tangled in drama and tears Quietly losing all to gravity and broken homes Walking to that railway station Quietly waving back at royalty as they leave their homes They're pillars of this faulty nation We're modestly bringing you tears You can feel it- something's wrong Something's broken, but you carry on All that was magic, all that was real Rising above superstition Nothing is given, but you carry on Day after day, you just keep on running Time after time, you just get it wrong Day after day, you just keep on running Life coming through from an endless source You're looking for a reason You're looking for a reason to be here You're back in the circle You're back in the circle of fear We're watching the river But no one just dares to go near This system is broken All tangled in frenzy and fear Quietly sitting here, just waiting for the sun Quietly floating in the stillness of the dawn You can feel it Something's wrong Something's broken Something's gone The system's broken, we drift away Disconnected, lost and so afraid (Just as we walk through the world) Now revealing the ugly state of play Black serpent, black deceiver Black river, non-forgiver Tighten the grip, never let it go Tighten the grip, never let him go Looking for more time Looking for sunshine Watching for bright eyes Listening for lullabies Always the bright mind Searching for leylines Now and forever Looking for more time Looking for sunshine Always the bright mind Now and forever Looking for sundown Always the run-around Connecting the stray-lines Wish I could bend time Watching the river But no one goes near You can feel it Something's wrong Something's broken Something's gone All that is legend All that is real All in the circle Just got to heal Nothing's taken, nothing's given Our world is shaken by greed and pettiness Life is precious rhythm From an endless source From the beginning of it all Hold on to forgiveness Nothing is broken Nothing is real Nothing is ever what you see Looking for, watching for, listening for...
