There Is A Light

Hang on darling,
Gentle now,
This boys lost his thunder in the dirty clouds.
Dull white starlite,
Pale as the morning falls away.
The devil each dawn,
And flat greys upon,
Were torn asunder neath his gaze.
So cmon ye children,
If theres one thing we know,
Its that them gathering clouds are swinging low.
So dont you be precious,
Man dont you be meek,
There aint no damn glory in the long retreat.
Go call the fuzz,
Theyll shine their lights on us,
Weve been building in the dark,
Theres so many of us.
Now blinking in the light,
Theres so many of us.
Illuminated and proud,
Theres so many of us.
But there aint no truth but the no truth but the not truth, yeah!
Aint no thing but the nothing but the nothing, yeah!
Aint no fall but the long fall is a long fall, yeah!
And there aint no light but the true light is a dim light, yeah!
But Ive been waiting and longing for that light to fall all over me.
6 and 6 parsons and he doth proclaim
that the best little bits of us misfits and strays
Make a light in the night that needs to be shamed,
All for some none for all,
And all fallen the same.
And we surrender the stage to those pale horse riders.
Go forth, man
Get down,
With a mighty fist and a retarded crown,
Do the one-step the two-step,
Sweet jubilee!
And show me the light, goddamn!
And lay me down in a bed full of rain.
There is a light!
Yeah **** is bleak -weve seen it and worried,
Our timid leaps get knee-deep and buried,
Entire weeks where I swear I can barely rise.
Electrical fits,
Tantrums and prayers,
Pride un -does what mercy repairs,
The pits of this,
Toss a match to it and start again.
The absence of light is its own stubborn light - no light is a light,
No light is the true light,
And there is no light so there is a light
so there is no light so there is a light!
Though weve been denied too much hope in our lives
Let tonight be the night when it ends.
Tell me there is a light!
There is a light!
There!
Is!
A!
Light!
