Ben Gertner - '94 Lyrics

Why can the rocks cry out for you?
Why does nobody cry for me?
Skilled another insecurity underneath the covers
What about after the fire?
What about another lie?
Once-felt wounds open and bleed all over each other
And under the covers instead
And I blame it on my filthy hands
I just wish that I could wash my filthy hands
And clear my head

I gave you a few rings, but you never picked up
And I never saw nothing on your fingers
Equally shared, but only so far
As you take a habit like me
Quarantined, or something
You know what I mean
I feel like I'm waking up to a dream
And nothing is as it seems

'94, it was '94
I remember!
My lungs still feel sore
I think I was singing a praise song or something
You know what I mean
'Cause sometimes I don't know how to feel holy

'94, it was '94
I remember!
It was the last time sorrow was something I could not ignore
Well, I have been born again and again
But I still wanna scream my insecurity to somebody, anybody
Who will hear me?

Well, sometimes I think that God has left me lonely
Even though I was told again and again that I would never be lonely

I gave you a few rings, but you never picked up
And I never saw nothing on your fingers
Equally shared, but only so far
As you take a habit like me
Quarantined, or something
You know what I mean

I'm hoping there is no end to this dream
I hope nothing was as it seems
Will somebody wake me up?
Wake me up to
