Our love isn't linear, linear
We mix like oil and vinegar
We match, still under our skin we are
Shapes of a different kind
Everything that I say, you say
Just in an odd perpendicular way
Everything that you say, I say
Angles that can only speak in arcs
We are circles and squares
Moving in unison
3D people
In two dimensions
You and me
Geometry
Our love isn't linear, linear
Our love is an analog affair
We clash cos under our skin we are
Shapes of an opposite kind
Everything that you do, I do
Just in a way that drives you crazy
Everything that I do, you do
We were asymmetric from the start
We are circles and squares
Moving in unison
3D people
In two dimensions
You and me
Squares and circles
In perfect rhythm
I’ll be the sphere
If you’ll be the prism
You and me

I’ve seen the future but I can’t go there
It flows with milk and honey and our children swear
They’ll never have to work
They’ll never have a care
I’ve seen the future but I won’t be there
I learned about the future when I was young
I learned about the world and how it’s come undone
I learned about fear, of strangers and guns
I learned about the future and it’s no fun
Tell me love remains
Tell me love remains
Tell me love, tell me love remains
I heard about the future from my neighbour John
He told me from the safety of his perfect lawn
“If they move in, it won’t be long”
I heard about the future and it sounds all wrong
I think about the future when I see your face
I think about youth and how we’re parting ways
I think about God, I think about faith
I think about the future and I hope there’s grace
Tell me love remains
Tell me love remains
Tell me love, tell me love remains
I prayed about the future and I understood
All this talk about time will never do much good
If I want things different I gotta quit this doubt
I gotta keep on praying and live love out
I gotta keep on praying and live love out

She hopes you can’t tell
The things she parades are barricades
Browse her collections
Gilded indications
Trophies lead line the walls
She don't need to know your name
And she'll make pleasure from your pain
And life is pain, but she don't care
And she don't care 'cause she's a

Mountains smile bleakly down
They masquerade as mothers
Brothers and sisters maintain their distance

We are watching apparitions of ourselves
Two inventions with no earthly tongues to tell
Still suspended, willing a surface to repel off of
We are mirages, a trick of light, a sleight of hand
When what we want is to be touchable again
All five senses emerging from the fog
Let's be human while we still remember how
It is not a failure to be flawed
It's beautifully symptomatic
I am not afraid of being more
Than what I've been
I wanna see how the light falls
I wanna feel it on my skin
So how do I begin?
It is not a failure to be flawed
It's beautifully symptomatic
I am not afraid of being more
Than what I've been
It is not a failure to be flawed
It's beautifully symptomatic
I am not afraid of being more
Than what I've been
I want to see how the light falls
I want to feel it on my skin
So how do I begin?
We are breezes chasing after wind
Two unjoined pieces searching for a way to fit
Sleepers waking in the half light up till now
Let's be human while we still remember how
I want to live in the elements
I've spurned my comfort and common sense
I’ve no imagined lost innocence
I'll bleed you dry, no I won't pretend
I'll be coming home but I don't know when
I felt your fire, I breathed your air
We turned and twisted, our bruises bared
I curse the ground still I feel you everywhere
In a fickle world, there's no stubborn love
I can feel your ghost, when will you give up?
It's a funny thing I heard of once
The return of the prodigal son
Oh baby thrill me, make me feel good
Flashes of neon in frames of wood
I don't feel guilty, maybe I should
In a fickle world, there's no stubborn love
I can feel your ghost, when will you give up?
It's a funny thing I heard of once:
The return of the prodigal son
In a fickle world, there's no stubborn love
I can feel your ghost, when will you give up?
It's a funny thing I heard of once
The return of the prodigal son
I saw the painting St. Petersburg
Rembrandt's depiction of a return
I am the oil and pigment mixed
And I know nothing but I know this:
I've been lost a long time in my head
I've followed all the signs but I was misled
I'll be coming home but I don't know when
I have got a mind to take you away
To some white sand and a palm tree parade
I have got a mind to take you away
I have got a mind to go
I have got a smile that's only for you
Exchanged in secret, the way lovers do
I have got a smile that's only for you
Baby, I have got a smile
Morning sneaks up on us
Shines on our sheets
Waking me into my favourite dream
My best imagining never implied
That you'd be the dawning that ended my night
I have got the will to love you always
Through the chilliest winter
The hot summer haze
I have got the will to love you always
I have got the will to love
Honey, I know it won't always be sweet
Loving a person is not a small feat
Don't give up on me and I won't on you
Pack your bags baby 'cause I'm taking you
Come, sit, take the load off
Talk with me a while
Community is common pain
And common joy and offered time
We don't have to agree on everything
You’ll learn something from me
And I'll learn something from you
We all have a story
And a past we've lived through
And I think it’s kind of beautiful
We were born for the struggle
We were born for the pain
Eve ate the apple and I did the same
Eve ate the apple and I did the same
We're so busy capturing and broadcasting
The moment that we do not live it
So consumed with the playback of our lives
We don't know we are not in it
Put down the camera and look me in the eye
So much for, so much for the myth of progress
Seems to me it's still about who gots the mostest
While the pigeon holers hold their placards high
We were born into trouble
We were born into pain
Eve ate the apple and I did the same
We are, we are
A ragamuffin remnant if we are honest
Oh Abraham
We are the stars you were promised
I wanna feel something real even if it's hard
Like facing the gap between the people we wanna be
And the people we are
See you and I, we're not so different
Think it's time I set sail from
Disillusionment to hope
Take that big, big river
In my small, small boat
Show myself we're not all darkness
All darkness
We were born for the beauty, for the poetry of pain
Surely as sparks fly upward from the flame
Eve ate the apple and I did the same
Eve ate the apple and I did the same
Black light, cheek sting up near the Arctic
Brazen boys down in the arcade
Lip spit, numb, split, wind off the Baltic
I shake far from my homeland
I am ice when I'm not near him
Time is frozen till we meet
Where my lover is, endless summer lives
So I'm headed for the heat
Antarctica running through my veins
Born in the ice but I'll die in the flame
Could be fatal but here I go
You don't know till you wanna know
You don't know till you pass the equator
The equator
Burnin', burnin', flushed with fever
Breathless, beating, when he's near
He is practically volcanic
The mercury is stratospheric
Antarctica running through my veins
Born in the ice but I'll die in the flame
Could be fatal but here I go
You don't know till you wanna know
You don't know till you pass the equator
The equator
Ooh baby, come along with me
Better run run run run run
Live a little while we're young and free
Better run run run run run
Easy come, easy go, we just keep on movin'
We can go anywhere, we just keep on movin'
You don't know when
You don't know where
You don't know how this ride is gonna end
Before these bones turn to sand
Shake 'em out
Cos babe, the dead don't dance
One day we're gonna kick this game
And we will run run run run run
They'll call your number and they’ll call my name
And we will run run run run run
Easy come, easy go, we just keep on movin'
We can go anywhere as long as we're movin'
Cos you don't know where
You don't know when
You don't know how this ride is gonna end
Before these bones turn to sand
Shake 'em out
Cos babe, the dead don't dance
I could be wrong, I could be right
We could be taking our last bow tonight
Before these bones turn to sand
Shake 'em out
Cos babe, the dead don't dance
Easy come, easy go, we just keep on movin'
We can go anywhere
We can go anywhere
We can go anywhere
We can go anywhere
Cos you don't know where
You don't know when
You don't know how this ride is gonna end
Before these bones turn to sand
Shake 'em out
Cos babe, the dead don't dance
I could be wrong, I could be right
We could be taking our last bow tonight
Before these bones turn to sand
Shake 'em out
Cos babe, the dead don't dance
The day is dimming and I'm yearning for you
I won't be satisfied till I see your face
Every victory, every loss
Every tick and every cross
You can put them all in place
It seems I'm finding more of why
In these moments
I feel like I'm made to sing of how good you are
The more the years swell by and pass
Each second more than last
It's truer by far
That no profound thought or clever rhyme
No soaring grand, melodic line
No theory, philosophy or sign
Can explain it
Can explain
Where you are, I wanna be
It's your love that has changed me
I'd give the world and all it's charms
For a moment in your arms
Better is one day with you
Than a thousand elsewhere
A thousand elsewhere
I still remember what it felt like before you
I'm grateful every day for how things have changed
I'll thank you every way I can
'Cause my life only began
When I heard you call my name
Now, no praise of man
No great acclaim
No humble looking kind of fame
No power, wealth or worldly gain
Could satisfy me
Could every satisfy
'Cause where you are, I wanna be
It's your grace that has raised me
I'd give my whole life to honour you
In whom I live
In whom I move
Better is one day with you
Than a thousand elsewhere
Better is one day in your courts
Better is one day in your house
Better is one day in your courts
Than anywhere else oh
Lead me, lead me
Lead me to yourself
Lead me to your heart
Where you are, I wanna be
It's your grace that has raised me
I'd give my whole life to honour you
In whom I live
In whom I move
Better is one day with you
Than a thousand elsewhere
Lead me to yourself
Lead me to your heart
I'll be found in you
I'll be found in you
Here is peace
Here is joy
Here is light
Here is freedom, freedom
