State of Grace

Put my stake into the ground

Made my claim this time around

And in the selfsame circumstance I’d do the same again

Hold on out for the one I love, for the one I know I’m of

I never would be swayed

It was here before we noticed it

It’ll be here when we’re gone

And if I push you away, well let me be the first to say

That oh I’ve seen your light, it’s in the harbour

Come on pull me all the faster

Back to the selfsame day

Beauty comes in slow release

I awaken to you piece by piece

I have no need for innocence or grief

Put my hand into your hand

And all the words I understand

They fall away like endless days upon the shore

They fall away like endless days upon the shore

We were here before we noticed it

We’ll be here if it’s gone

And if I led you astray, well let me be the one to say

That oh, I’ve seen your light out in the harbour

Come on pull us all the faster

Into the selfsame day

And I put my stake into the ground

In a state of grace this time around

And in the selfsame circumstance I do the same again

I would do the same again

I would do the same again
