La Dispute - You And I In Unison lyrics
What will I find? â¨Some sacred thing to help me handle the tragedy?
â¨Or did I onceDid I have it and lose it?
No one should ever have to walk through the fire alone. â¨No one
Should ever have to brave that storm. No, â¨Everybody needs someone or
Something.
And when I sing, don't I sing your name outâ¨Right at the same time
That I sing my own?
Some days I swear I can feel you splitting the light through the window
Frame. â¨The shapes it makes are always warmer, always brighter than
The rest of what comes through.
Some days I swear I can hear you sing to me or whisper my name in the
Slightest way. â¨It's like the warmest light now laid across my
Bedroom floor is somehow actually you andâ¨Not just sunlight.
I have the memory climb down the balcony. â¨I put a flower on the back
Of it's dress. â¨It's probably best to forget it. â¨It's probably
Best to let go. â¨I paint it the shade of where the skin and the lip
Meet, â¨Only a moment after breaking the kiss. Andâ¨I blur out
Everything else. â¨That's how I choose to remember it.
Some nights are a lot like the days, I lay awake too late, I watch the
Shadows castedâ¨Trace your shape. Those silver slivers on the wall
Then on the bed sheets. â¨I hear your song in the trees. I finally
Fall into rest. â¨Often later when I'm sleeping you show up in my
Dreams. â¨Just doing simple things like buying groceries. â¨And
When I wake up I could swear you must've just left meâ¨Like you got upLa Dispute - You And I In Unison - http://motolyrics.com/la-dispute/you-and-i-in-unison-lyrics.html
To make breakfast or maybe just to get dressed.
But the truth is, you were never there. You won't ever be. â¨Sometimes
I think I'm not either so what do I doâ¨When every day still seems to
Start and end with you? â¨And you won't ever know, you won't ever see,
â¨How much your ghost since then has been defining me.
I leave the memory up atop the balcony. â¨I tear this flower from the
Back of the dress. â¨It's best this time, I bet, to just forget and
Let go. â¨Paint it the shade of where the lip bleeds and blur it out.
â¨I blur out everything else, just blur out everything else.
â¨And let go, and let go, and let go.
Everybody has to let go somedayâ¨Everybody has to let go.
I wonder when I will. I wonder.
But if I still hear you singing in every city I meetâ¨After I blur it
All out, our every memory, ifâ¨You never fade with the days, your
Shape still haunting me then, â¨Should I not just sing along?
â¨Should I not just sing along?
I will sing sweetly hope that the notes change butâ¨I do not need it
To happen. I'm not resigned to it. Andâ¨If they never do I'll sing
Your name in every line. â¨Just like I did throughout this. Just like
I've always done. â¨In every gun, the empty church, and every tortured
Son. â¨In all those giving up. In all those giving in.â¨Until I
Die I will sing our names in unison.
Until I die I will sing our names in unison.
