dust - stand still (ny) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
time shows that stillness stays
long after a divine wind shakes the trees
and the sea sways in the great south bay
the tides recede
but fallen branches remain

[verse 2]
you gave me a gift with your name engraved
to ensure i’m left to live with the shame
of knowing i’ll never reciprocate
but i should try my best

lest you liken me to a razor covered in rust
standing left with the remnants of your trust
the power lines gave but the lights still remain
on, and on, and on

[chorus]
you follow me like dust
you cover everything
i see you everywhere

[verse 3]
and in the storm i stand outside
a spiteful attempt to collect efforts when [?]
nowadays i live my life in a sh*ll
a paranoid conch with stories to tell
poking an eye out of my cell
where i’ve been locked away
this mollusk is keen to someday soon
return to a life once free from doom
and when i wash upon the shore
i’ll stare into the eye of the storm

[chorus]
you follow me like dust
you cover everything
i see you everywhere
you follow me like dust
you cover everything
you’re gone with one faint gust

[outro] (kristian hallbert of crime in stereo)
give yourself away, give yourself away
give yourself away, give yourself away
despite static on phone lines
we’ve been bruised but we get by
i’m not waiting for our time
because my conscience is clean

- stand still ny lyrics
