(Take me to this holy aisle and sing
Save me from this haunted island
Take me from this haunted photo.)
I don't believe you
Because I can't see you
Because Gods are made of man
And the questions that I have
Make me uneasy
Well, maybe its easy
To let it go away
In a drug to take your place
I'm done looking for it
I'm done searching for it
So take this as goodbye
And hold my word a promise
I'm done looking for it
I'm done searching for it
So take this as goodbye
And hold my word a promise
I want to leave you
Erase and release you
This hole sits in my chest
And the silence on your lips
Pushes me further
You feel so much further
Where is the love now?
In the fire, on the ground?
Well I've been looking for it
And I've been searching for it
So show me who you are
Or loose my eyes forever
Well I've been looking for it
And I've been searching for it
So show me who you are
Or loose my eyes forever
[Levi the Poet]
And I don't have all of your answers
I know because I don't have all of mine
But I do know that if we both
Wrote out all of our questions
And somebody took the time
To explain all the mystery away
(Maybe in numerical order
Calculated, textbook highlights)
They'd be cold and unable to sympathize
With divorce
With how you felt when your dad died
With the way San Francisco quaked
Like your heart break
Like our fault lines
Like the way the cityscape melts away
With the sunrise in the rear view
Like these memories aren't just mine
Like how beautiful and devastating for
Our hearts to fail at the same time
I don't have all of the answers
But the one that I do is that there would
Be no pursuit of them
Had not someone been pursuing you
Don't call it "doctrine"
Don't say "cliché"
Don't say, "cope"
Call it power
Say it's confidence
Say it's irresistible hope
That all of the longings that you're convinced
Are folly
And the groanings that you rationalize
Could collide with the answer that you've been seeking after
After he ignited the pursuit inside
And I know that there is no
Refining fire quite like suffering
Nor suffering as devastatingly beautiful
As when God died
Let our wisdom stumble across
The foolishness of that broken rock
Cleft for all of our wanderings
And resurrect in the tongues of love like
Men as trees walking
And then:
Clarity for the first time
Like the grace that saves you
Is the grace that keeps you
Is the grace that gives you life
Like "I will not let loose your eyes."
[Outro: Alex Sugg]
Kill the pride, kill the pride
I made my mind
That i want it
That i will trust you
That I will trust you oh
I'm here now, I'm here now
