Week 26b - The Words You Heard (200621)

from Song A Week, Volume 5 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

Lace coal cedar glass
Flint soil canvas brass
Eyes hands shoulders knees
Stay here with me please

Silk pearl iron ice
Paint string leather knife
Voice spine liver skin
Say those words again

I can see the future 'til the moment I depart
Two thousand forty three I die of broken heart
Dreams are just a window into some broader truth
The words you heard were meant for me and mine are meant for you

Grace peace crosses drugs
Lies lust shotgun slugs
Blood nose fingers toes
These streets surrender slow

I can see the future 'til the moment I depart
Two thousand forty three I die of broken heart
Dreams are just a window into some broader truth
The words you heard were meant for me and mine are meant for you
