Keaton Henson
Stand in Tall Ovation
In my body I'm a foreigner
Trying to trap wind in a box
My uncertainty's convincing me
I'm slipping on the rocks
And I get lost trying to follow
The rise and fall and swallow
Of a breath that leaves my stomach tied in knots
And still the morning light
Comes rushing right inside
So I'll bring down the house
Just for waking up
And if I'm going out
Will it be enough?
If I seek out the sun
Will the sorrow I've sung
Stand in tall ovation
In a chemical parade?
Before emerging from unconsciousness
Is it so damn much to ask
For a sense of accomplishment
And the fleeting thought to last
Un-leaving
So I'll bring down the house
Just for waking up
And if I'm going out
Will it be enough?
If I seek out the sun
Will the sorrow I've sung
Stand in tall ovation
In a chemical paradе?
So I'll bring down the house
Just for waking up
And if I'm going out
Will it be еnough?
If I seek out the sun
Will the sorrow I've sung
Stand in tall ovation
In a chemical parade?
