letra de god laughs - joe henry

Loading...

i’ve torn a page from fallen white veil
i’ve drawn a map of the world;
while legend and keep take the measure of me
and the flag i knit to unfurl

my head in my hands, my back to the land
i step out on the sea and slip under
and god laughs herself into thunder

the stain of the sky has bled to my hands
a tear moving through a hard letter
the words coming free to conspire with me
a story i know i tell better
opening frames, uncoupling names
i rearrange all to my vision
and god laughs herself beyond reason

now who gave the dark such power to sing
the black bird in the heart taking over?
it came through a door that’s locked and secure
to scare up a song in my lover

i’ve built a wall as if it was all
i needed to hold back the hours
and god throws a laugh from her tower

oh soon may it come the surrender to
only this love and all of its terror
may we be consumed by the mystery of this room and
that fire can only make clearer

may we come clean with all that we mean
and all that we need now to see through
and may god laugh with you, see you as true
and may god see herself within me too
