Fear
Lyrics
We were tied through fear
In the hope we’d grow
Your retreat from home could end
Where we slept beneath the side of my bed
In an empty house I shared with my friends
When the hope fades south
And the steps caved in
When the embers hold below
And remind me of you coming home
To wash all the smoke from your clothes
But I don’t mean to say
that all my love had turned away
But I just need you for the weekend
Or a while
Are you right with god?
Was he on your side?
As the days shrink back again
Turn to quiet, sink into dread
Shading all the thoughts in my head
So, I speak with death
Will he work with time?
To the days longer in light
He picks her from the back of my mind
Blots her out and changes my sight
And with the sense from you
That all my love had turned away
And I believed that for these weeks
And for a while
I don’t mean to prepare for this
I could never say why
I don’t need this now
But I just need you for the weekend or a while
We were tied through fear
In the hope we’d grow
Your retreat from home could end
Where we slept beneath the side of my bed
In an empty house I shared with my friends
When the hope fades south
And the steps caved in
When the embers hold below
And remind me of you coming home
To wash all the smoke from your clothes
But I don’t mean to say
that all my love had turned away
But I just need you for the weekend
Or a while
Are you right with god?
Was he on your side?
As the days shrink back again
Turn to quiet, sink into dread
Shading all the thoughts in my head
So, I speak with death
Will he work with time?
To the days longer in light
He picks her from the back of my mind
Blots her out and changes my sight
And with the sense from you
That all my love had turned away
And I believed that for these weeks
And for a while
I don’t mean to prepare for this
I could never say why
I don’t need this now
But I just need you for the weekend or a while
