Listen Through Me

I've seen his ragged shoes The soles are worn straight through Well I proclaimed The king has sang the blues If you've got better news Then make it play He laid aside his crown All our crimes he carried Was lifted from the ground With our burdens buried Listen to me Though I speak of sober things Listen through me Though we're men of lips unclean I speak truly What you only think you've heard Everything Everything Everything hangs on a word Sparing no expense He made recompense For all the earth The story's an offense So get down from that fence And bless or curse He laid aside his crown All our crimes he carried Was lifted from the ground With our burdens buried The shadows all had flown In the light diminished He emptied out his lungs Crying it is finished Listen to me Though I speak of sober things Listen through me Though we're men of lips unclean I speak truly What you only think you've heard Everything Everything Everything hangs on a word A word... The shadows all had flown In the light diminished He emptied out his lungs Crying it is finished Listen to me Though I speak of sober things Listen through me Though we're men of lips unclean I speak truly What you only think you've heard Everything Everything Everything hangs on a word
