I dream of you Moment I can feel you there I can hold you But sometimes there's a shift in the motion I can't keep you near, just stand in motion Can I count on you? Can I count on you? You're my only virtue Inner demons That I can't seem to push aside I can't stop it And that's why I need you here I am no good but you steer me clear of my bad oceans Can I count on you To be there with me now? I can't bear the thought Of losing you somehow Please hold down the phone Since I am not around Can I count on you To be there with me? You're my only virtue Now I may not deserve you But I can not do without you Didn't know what I had lost You are my elevation You're the closest thing to heaven If you hadn't caught me Then where am I meant to fall? Moments I can feel you Hold you in my arms Feels as forgetting from Can I count on you To be there with me now? I can't bear the thought Of losing you somehow Please hold down the phone Since I am not around Can I count on you To be there with me? You're my only virtue Can I count on you? Can I, can I, can I count on you? You're my only virtue Count on you, count on you

Temptation hides In the space between Lord, help me fight this desire for fire Words can cleanse and purify Or tear down a pack of lies In your presence, consequence I can't stop trembling For all of my virtue Why can I not hold the truth? For all my good fortune I would change my place with you This path will lead us back Will lead us back to ruin For all of my virtue Why can I not hold the truth? This path will lead us back Will lead us back to ruin For all of my virtue Why can I not hold the truth? Once in a while The urge resurfaces So we split hairs as rumours circulate And there's a need to fertilise Behind my lover's trusting eye Like water drops on burning warts I can't stop trembling For all of my virtue Why can I not hold the truth? For all my good fortune I would change my place with you This path will lead us back Will lead us back to ruin For all of my virtue Why can I not hold the truth? I've fallen I've fallen again I've fallen I've fallen again I've fallen I've fallen again I've fallen

I live in two different worlds Simultaneously The one i seem to live in And the one that lives in me And one is full of violence Oppression and disrespect And one is full of longing To breathe and to connect Yeah, my inner world is fragile And the outer world is dumb And this whole thing is such a hassle Won't you wake me when it's done? I live in two different worlds Simultaneously The one where we are fractured And the one where we are free Freedom requires safety Freedom requires trust Freedom requires balance In the equation of us Yes, my inner world is fragile And the outer world is dumb And this whole thing is such a hassle Won't you wake me when it's done? When it's done... I live in two different worlds Simultaneously And between them is a chasm Unfolding unfathomably And in that chasm a shadow And in that shadow i stand Facing towards the light Nothing in my hands My inner world is fragile And the outer world is dumb And this whole thing is such a hassle Won't you wake me when it's done? When it's done...

Growing up it was just me and my mom against the world And all my sympathies were with her when i was a little girl And i've seen both my parents play out the hands that they were dealt As each year goes by i know more about how my father must have felt I just want you to understand that i know what all the fighting was for And i just want you to understand that i'm not angry anymore No i'm not angry anymore She taught me how to wage cold war with quiet charm But i just want to walk through my life unarmed To accept and just get by like my father learned to do But without all the acceptance and getting by that got my father through I just want you to understand that i know what all the fighting was for And i just want you to understand that i'm not angry anymore No i'm not angry anymore Night falls like people into love And we generate our own light to compensate For the lack of light from above And every time we fight a cold wind blows our way But we can learn like the trees how to bend How to sway and say I, i think i understand what all this fighting is for And baby i just want you to understand that i'm not angry anymore No i'm not angry anymore

I will tend my anger I will tend my grief I will achieve safety I will find relief I'll show myself mercy I'll show my self-respect I'll decide when i'm ready To forgive but not forget I will ask you questions I will try to understand And if you give me your story I will hold it in my hands Yes, i will bring the love The revolutionary love I will bring the love The revolutionary love I will bring the love The revolutionary love The revolutionary love And even if you hurt me I will not shut down No, you can't make me hate you And carry that hate around I will see no stranger Only parts of myself, I don't yet know I'll see right through evil To a wound, too scared to show I have the power to stay open I have the power to be The one that i've been waiting for The one who sets me free Yes, i can bring the love The revolutionary love I can bring the love The revolutionary love Yes, i will bring the love The revolutionary love The revolutionary love I will tend my anger I will tend my grief I will achieve safety I will find relief I'll show myself mercy I'll show myself respect I'll decide when i'm ready To forgive but not forget I will ask you questions I will try to understand And if you give me your story I will hold it in my hands I will bring the love The revolutionary love I will bring the love The revolutionary love I will bring the love The revolutionary love The revolutionary love

They go low You go high You bring more Than your own supply That dirty game You don't play That shit's contagious You stay away That shit's contagious You stay away They go low You go high Not takin polls Not doin math Not trying to steamroll A path Not trying to calculate Manipulate The future or the past That shit's contagious You stay away That shit's contagious Just stay away They go low You go high I'm not beneath you I'm not above In the center I put love In our being We are the same But are we playing That dirty game? That shit's contagious Just stay away They go low You go high

Are you weary as water In a faucet left dripping With an incessant sadness Like a sad record skipping And an ugly and ornery And shadowy dread Lurking like a troll under the bridge Between your heart and your head She came to and her Whole life was how she remembered it She had a mouth full of fur And she was laughing She parked her hearse across Three spaces posted "motorcycles only" And jumped out shouting What the cus could make a nice girl like us Feel so lonely? Are you weary as water In a faucet left dripping With an incessant sadness Like a sad record skipping And an ugly and ornery And shadowy dread Lurking like a troll under the bridge Between your heart and your head Please dumb blind kind sir Lend little miss listless just a little bit of christmas She's been a real good girl But now she's stuck here The world is so little and still Mysterious and ominious as ever before Like an unmarked bottle full of pills On the shelf right next to the thing You were reaching for Are you weary as water In a faucet left dripping With an incessant sadness Like a sad record skipping And an ugly and ornery And shadowy dread Lurking like a troll under the bridge Between your heart and your head Swing the groove 'round here Where i can reach it When i get my ass back on track I'm gonna need it Swing shift til i get the money To buy me and my baby a moon full of honey Then i'm gonna turn the nagging voices Inside my head That follw me to bed and fill my head with (you suck) Are you weary as water (what'd you do that for?)
