Not Changing Pops, Seeking

I’m not changing pops, I’m seeking
And I hear what you’re preaching
But this drowsy inanition can’t stay
I am screaming out this seance
While a spectral love is playing with the lights
It just ain’t right

I won’t lie to you, I won’t lie
If the water comes, we won’t survive

Shine on, you sinking sun
‘Cause the waning time, it gets me low
Look on, you wicked world
I will wait my turn but it goes slow

I won’t lie to you, I won’t lie
If the water comes, we won’t survive

She was standing there
She was standing there
I tore another picture from the wall
‘Cause I don’t want them anymore
I swam these waters for so long
I never thought I’d reach the shore
When I came out you were standing, smiling
Radiant through your own trauma
You took my hand and you hold it still
Can you hear the laugh of lovers
She was standing there
She’s still standing there

So shine on, you sinking sun
For the waning time, it gets me low
Look on, you wicked world
I will wait my turn but it goes slow
