Portugal The Man - All Your Light (Times Like These) lyrics

rate me

I'm just a shadow of a bigger man,

Glowing brighter with each year, I am,

I was sitting on the mountain,

Just looking down.

It's like my Daddy said,

"You've got to use your head."

My body won't work for nobody but me, son.

No one said that they'd aim to please.

All your light can't save me.

All your light, all your light can't save me.

I will wait for my time to come.

I can't wait, I can't wait for my time to come.

My body won't work for nobody but me, son.

As a boy I had it figured out,

That there are things that you can't live without.

But money, it's sad but true, is surely topping lists.

And your rules, your rules, your rules

Well, they will not be missed.

And I became whole again, because

No one said, no one said, no one said

There'd be times like these.

All your light can't save me.

All your light, all your light can't save me.

I will wait for my time to come.

I can't wait, I can't wait for my time to come.

My body won't work for nobody but me, son.

No one said there'd be times like these.

I was making flames when I broke your reins,

Still, no one said, no one said, no one said

It'd be suicide.

All your light can't save me.

All your light, all your light can't save me.

I will wait for my time to come.

I can't wait, I can't wait for my time to come.

My body won't work for nobody but me, son.

No one said there'd be times like these.
