I'm currently rearranging my thoughts on god.
You can most likely tell that from the lyrics.
It's not really about god, though.
It's just a really big analogy.
For... I don't know.
It's not knocking on god. That is all. =P
For... I don't know.
It's not knocking on god. That is all. =P
I need to shout
into the holy darkness
I need to pray
to a god who isn't there
and every Sunday
I go searching for a savior
but love is my messiah
and no one seems to care.
So I'll stay awake
with him when he's in the garden
and I'll wait three days
without saying the word
I'll sing empty praises
until I find the answer
I'm reciting my lines
but none of it is heard.
it's all so right
when we're sitting in the silence
I can close my eyes
and I like what I see
I don't know
if you really think I'm beautiful
but I really think
that you're pretty damn convincing.
I was never one
to believe unless I saw it
I was always one
to look before I leap
I couldn't believe
in god or love or anything
but then I saw you
I guess love believed in me.
I'm still holding on
to fragments of what I started
I need to compose
all my thoughts into a song
but there's something strange
that I see in my reflection
there is something there
I ain't seen since she's been gone.
it's all so right
when we're sitting in the silence
I can close my eyes
and I like what I see
I don't know
if you really think I'm beautiful
but I really think
that you're pretty damn convincing.
Somewhere along those lines
I see it lurking in the alleys
or the corners of his eyes
or the shadows of her mind
but it's the liquid love
that is pumping with each heartbeat
and I can't shake the feeling
I ought to see it all the time.
and now looking back
I never felt a presence
like the feel of his breath
on the back of my neck
or the flattened grass
where we have been dancing
I guess I was just dreaming
your new love is too high tech.
it's all so right
when we're sitting in the silence
I can close my eyes
and I like what I see
I don't know
if you really think I'm beautiful
but I really think
that you're pretty damn convincing.
it's all so right
when we're sitting in the silence
I can close my eyes
and I like what I see
I don't know
if you really think I'm beautiful
but I really think
that you're pretty damn convincing.
