They say You live in hospitals and trenches
And towers in the sky
And I'm not dying or fighting any wars

Except on the inside

The only thing I need is a void that You can fill

And I jump ship and run even further in Your will

And I am looking for the well that won't run dry

The rest that weary thoughts cannot deny
When You wrap Your arms around me
I can walk away or face the emptiest day





The words I find impossible to mention
Are written on a star
They say that I can find You in a flower

But I need You in the car

The optimism of my youth is dead and gone

But I'll save these speculations for another time and song

And life is only perceived through chemicals and emotion

But love, love is the island that overgrows the ocean
