lyrics

Won’t you give me your hand cause I need a savior
And I don’t understand how Jesus works.
If I could believe in something it would be the rising sun,
But I’ve heard about the winters way up north.
And on my peace-less planet I paint murals in my bones
Of a darkness as it stretches towards the light.

And all things equal I think I would like to start again
with naming all the creatures and the boarders and the sins
Cause all things given to us are so hard to comprehend
In dreams sometimes I glimpse them just before they round the bend

There’s a lamb and a lion and the persuasive things they said
There’s a plow tilling fast behind a war horse
There are children holding hands praying for me to understand
But I don’t I still don’t and I can’t.

They say -blessed are the house-less when our hearts become our homes-
With velvet pulsing curtains and a ceiling fan that moan
Cradled in the difference between dreams and coming true
Is you taking my hand like we saw the children do.

Carry off my expectations for the things I cannot change
Save me the loss of my patience and bless me through my blame
If god is in the future and hope is in the rain
With our hands griped tight together we’ll put one foot in front of the other

If you give me your hand then I’ll be your savior
And Friend we’ll walk a long way like that
a long way like that
