Negative Players - Had a Revelation Lyrics

Not everyone is seen
You're not the exception you thought you would be
Holding on to all those half finished tomes
Sitting in dusty winter homes
Wondering when the river will freeze

If they threw you half a bouquet
You'd play it down while rushing the stage
Oh the comfort of those tiny hands clapping
Like insects all 'a thrashing
Beneath the wind and the rain

I had a revelation
And I thought that you should know
You wore a blank expression
As you watched yourself sinking like a stone
Sinking like a stone

Don't take it from me
But I have it on such great authority
Only take 5 minutes to say what you want
But a lifetime to explain what you mean

I had a revelation
And I thought that you should know
You wore a blank expression
As you watched yourself sinking like a stone
Sinking like a stone
Sinking like a stone
Thought that you should know
