The Cherubim

[Verse 1]
Standing in the grotto
I was looking for a revelation secretly
My head was pretty heavy
Like a novice, I was thinking stupidly
Someone in the past, a little careless
Took a little liberty

[Chorus 1]
One moment to the next
Things had changed, and now we’re speaking of him quietly
One moment to the next
Things had changed
We learned our lesson, didn’t we?

[Verse 2]
Cleaning up the bedroom
I was thinking of the consequences of our needs
I didn’t even vote
Instead, I comforted my soul
With different means
‘Cause who can even tell
When at first you fail or when you finally succeed?

[Chorus 2]
One moment to the next
Things had changed, and now you’re sitting on some leather seat
One moment to the next
Things had changed, and now you just want to leave

[Bridge]
You just want to leave

[Verse 3]
Hearing all their problems makes you wonder why
You bother saying anything
Just then you remember
When you were so much younger
And you couldn’t sing
And then you ask for wisdom
A text, a dream or vision
A sight of the cherubim

[Chorus 3]
One moment to the next
Things had changed, and now you’re going to listen carefully
One moment to the next, things will change
I am waiting

[Outro]
I am waiting
