Now |
Now if I had the courage |
I’d pour into your jar |
All the things that I have heard you whisper in the dark |
And when that jar was heavy |
With your honeyed confidence |
I’d put it to my lips and drink its meaning and its sense |
Its meaning and its sense |
It has no end so let’s pretend its |
Now |
Let’s get started |
Now |
Let’s get started |
NOW |
Well nothing could be plainer |
Than the things that have been done |
And there can be no mystery in what is yet to come |
It’s now that howls at nothing |
It’s now that runs and hides |
It’s now that winds its spineless coils and slithers out of sight |
Your cries above the furrow |
Draw my fingers like a plow |
Through tattered ends that twist and bend about the here and now |
The here is blind and helpless |
And strives against the dark |
The Now’s a well of shadows where the world has come apart |
The world has come apart |
It has no end so let’s pretend its |
Now |
Let’s get started |
Now |
Let’s get started |
NOW |
Oh Now |
Oh Oh Oh Oh Now |
Oh Now |
Well there is precious little |
That escapes the powers that be |
The eyes that judge, the words that form our meager histories |
But when your flood surrounds me |
When the waters burst and come |
Who knows the things that I have felt, who knows what I have done |
And if I had the courage |
I’d pour into your jar |
All the things that I have heard you whisper in the dark |
And when that jar was heavy |
With your honeyed confidence |
I’d put it to my lips and drink it’s meaning and it’s sense |
It’s meaning and its sense |
It has no end so let’s pretend its |
Now |
Let’s get started |
Now |
Let’s get started |
NOW |
Oh Now |
Oh Oh Oh Oh Now |
Oh Now |
LET’S GET STARTED |
