Midnight Revel - Like a Child (feat. John-Michael Early) Lyrics



Midnight Revel - Like a Child (feat. John-Michael Early) Lyrics




Well, I once knew a girl
She was hanging on by a single thread
And there's things she taught me that I can't repeat

Just a hint, a little secret
About something bigger than myself
And now I think that I have fallen much too deep

Oh, if I were to share the things I learned down in the darkness
Oh, I'd have the set this house we're in on fire
With the words that burn but never seem to fully be my own
Oh darling, oh my darling, I can't lie

I can't lie to you. Everything I say is true
And every word comes straight from my poor heart
I'm feeling weak, like a child, or a man who's walked a thousand miles
Only to find his walk is incomplete

Oh, if I had the time to trace my steps back to that bookmark
I am certain I would not like what I'd find
Oh, the only way to not look lost when the lights are dead and gone
Is to tell yourself they never burned for you at all

They never burned at all. Darkness was all I saw
And I wandered through the shadow my whole life
With a single thread I drug my body through the dust and mud and oil
And now I think I'm gonna lay me down and die
