Miserere Lyrics

A disconcerting way to wake: to find everything in

place

the world goes on without my faith in anything

to have to drag myself from bed, pull a sweater over

my head

(somehow find a way to brave the sun again).

And all of this just as I was beginning to have the

most amazing dream.

They rolled the stones away

and let everyone come right in and say hello to me.

They picked me up and held me there

and smiled at my crumpled wings.

And all of this just as I was beginning to have the

most amazing dream.

And when you go to sleep at night, don't you ever feel

the weight

of all the things that make you happy;

that float around you, pull you down?

And don't you ever want to stand up on the waves and

run?
