Edward House - Shelter
текст песни

There’s a light coming in from the window
And you know I’m already far away
You know yesterday’s dead and tomorrow is blind
And there’s nothing more I can say

And I’m moving alone down the sidewalks
And I’m running away up the hills
And you’re trying to reach me
Don’t try to teach me
I know my ways myself

Throw me in the river
Take me close to the sun
You will never know how I get by
I just want you to know
When I’m gone I won’t cry

The lightning cuts the sky above me
But it feels like a home of mine
So please let me enter my dearest shelter
You know I believed in your lies

And the sand of the desert feels like water
And the cold of the night burns my skin
In the air that I’m breathing
In the river that’s seething
I finally found peace with myself

Throw me in the river
Take me close to the sun
You will never know how I get by
I just want you to know
When I’m gone I won’t cry

And I read all your thoughts and your feelings
And I know what you’d do if you found me
Please, stop trying
And please stop denying
My future is your mystery

I was never there for you, don’t fool yourself
But who cares? Now I’m finally free
All is not gold that glistens
Here the wind whistles
Telling me it’s time to disappear
