Chariot Lyrics
[Intro]
Woah-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 1]
In a soft electric light, in a soft electric light
I was a spark, I was daylight
I see the world for what it was, only for what it was
Stuck in the past, she is daylight
[Refrain]
I didn't know how to get back home, I didn't know
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
In a soft electric light, in a soft electric light
I dance like a ghost, no soul, all spirit
I'm afraid I'm not okay
I'm afraid of my last day, what if it hurts?
I put my heart all in it
[Refrain]
I didn't know how to get back home
But I'm still running
I didn't know
Oh-oh-oh-oh (Hey)
[Chorus]
Wait up for me, chariot, chariot come carry me
Hold on, hold on to me, chariot, chariot come carry me
[Bridge]
Carry me home
I'm still running
I'm still running
Carry me home
I'm still running
I'm still running
[Verse 3]
In a soft electric light, I see the world for what it was
I'm afraid I'm not okay, and I'm afraid of my last day
[Refrain]
I didn't know how to get back home
I didn't know
[Chorus]
Wait up for me, chariot, chariot come carry me
Hold on, hold on to me, chariot, chariot come carry me
[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

What have the artists said about the song?
Chariots are for royalty. They are golden and precious vessels reserved for people who deserve it. For this song though, I imagine my chariot to be a vessel of love and deliverance that carries me to a peaceful place. We recorded most of the album at Studio X in Seattle, which is an old church.
