Intro

 

Verse 1

You were born inside of a raindrop
And I watched you falling to your death
And the sun, well she could not save you
She'd fallen down too, now the streets are wet
Body of water, toxic and timeless
Atlantic Ocean, New York skyline
I always get lost when I leave the village
So I couldn't come meet you in Brooklyn last night

Chorus

But I sing glory from my lowest
And I will say peace to the people I meet
While the world waits for an explosion
That instant of life that wipes that slate clean  

Bridge

So don't be fooled
So don't get lied to
Love was always cruel 
And don't act strange
Don't be a stranger
It happened to me, now it's happening to you 
But if you take that train underwater then we could talk it through

Solo

    
    

Verse 2

Well, if I could tame all of my desires
Wait out the weather that howls in my brain
Because it seems that it's always changing
The wind's indecision, the sorrowful rain
Yeah, I was a postcard, I was a record
I was a camera until I went blind
And now I am riding all over this island
Looking for something to open my eyes

Chorus

But I still sing glory from a high rise
And I will say thanks if you're pouring my drinks
While the world waits for an explosion
That moment in time when we'll be set free  

Bridge

So don't stay mad
Just let some time pass
And in the morning you'll wake feeling new 
And if I don't come back, I mean...
If I get sidetracked
It's only 'cause I wanted to  
I'm keeping up with the moon on an all night avenue
