One two three four five six seven The word came down to him from heaven And naked as an animal he knew Everything of flesh and bone He could call it all his own If he could name it He could lay claim to it too But after all the word was spoken You sent him out into the open All alone to make his broken promise Whole again Eight nine ten eleven twelve Did you see how far he fell And did you watch him Covering his body in his shame
Wanting you near him Though you couldn’t hear him He was falling down With your name in his mouth
A thousand thousand years pass through me Stoned on loneliness and movies Where people make their love in foreign tongues Every family locks their door Every man in uniform Reminds me of the body of my own one I knew you before I met you I’ve forgotten why I left you All I wanna do is get back in to your good grace Call you by your hundred names Till it makes you mine again Until I get my will back in this god-forsaken place
I want you near me I know you can’t hear now But I’m falling down with your name I want you near me I wish you could hear me now While I’m falling down With your name in my mouthTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
