Blown to waste, the starlight Pale as the morning falls away The devil reached on And flat raised upon Were torn asunder, 'neath his gaze So come on ye' children, If there's one thing we know It's that those gathering clouds Are swinging low So don't you be precious And man don't you be meek There ain't no dim glory In the long retreat Don't carve the flight Satellites on us And we're building a tower There's so many of us No making of light There's so many of us Now weak on the prowl There's so many of us Ain't no truth but the known truth, but the known truth, yeah Ain't no fruit but the known fruit, but the known fruit, yeah Ain't no fall but the long fall, it's a long fall, yeah Ain't no way but the true way is the dim light, yeah But I've the light on, and been longing for the light To fall all over me Six and six parson, and he doth proclaim That the best little bits of us misfits and strings Making light in the night the means to be saved (ashamed?) All for one unto all and done fall all in the same And now we fall, and we go down and down And our wings like fists, like wings on a cloud And the one step, the two step, the three step we lead And show me the lightning now And there is a night And there is a light Yeah, shit is bleak, I've seen it and worried Timid leaves get lay deep and buried Entire wings wanna swim I can barely write Electrical fence, tantrums and prayers Bright on those, but must they repent The pits of this toss the axe to it and start again The absence of night is its own stubborn light No light is alight, no light is the true light There is no light Done weeping tonight So we're choking on light Tell me there is a light Oh, tell me there is a light
