lyrics

I didn't know that was still a thing they do
Our lampstand was just removed
We spilled our oil
Like ink into an inky sea
And when we burned it on the waves
You danced on a distant flame
The one we were made to enthrone

We all need to hear some hard things
Sometimes
And this one still hits hardest
We thought we could walk
By the light we made
Til we got lost in our own heads
And the light in us was
Darkness

In our caricature we drew
Your features based on our own truth
Our logos in the sponsored section
Of the program and the script we put you through
And when we hung it on the wall
It clashed with nothing at all
We forgot your mouth is drawn
Like a sword

We all need to hear some hard things
Sometimes
And this one still hits hardest
We thought we could walk
By the light we made
Til we got lost in our own heads
And the light in us was
Darkness

Lest we forget, no creature is hidden
Lest we forget, we're all patients at your table
Lest we forget, you already see our true conditions
In ways we've never been able
So give us sight

Lest the light in us be darkness

We all need to hear some hard things
Sometimes
And this one still hits hardest
We thought we could walk
By the light we make
Til we got lost in our heads
And the light in us was
Darkness

I'm nearly Dylanesque in my hubris
That I got something to say
But am I pure in heart?
That's the question

So find me reclining against
Your most-chaste-chest
I'll hear your resting cadence
Bear a resemblance to

Repent, repent, repent

We all need to hear some hard things, sometimes
We all need to hear some hard things
