Mt Eerie - Stop Singing lyrics

rate me

The possibility that if I stopped clapping my hands in the void

I would notice that I can't hold ono things.

And the possibility that if I stopped using my voice I would notice

Songs that all around me sing

Looms in weather, lives buried in my days

With all my songs and rhythms going

Like the darkness surrounding a flame.

It's what I don't say with my mouth.

It's my mouth open to breathe in.

It's open windows.

Still, I go on and on describing the shape around the thing I want to

But cannot name in song.

And though my long life feels busy and full of usefulness and drive,

I will sleep through ever single dawn.

And those I see I really won't comprehend, though I try.

And I will sing through every single song

About the spaces left when we stop singing.

And I will sing this with longing.<br />
