First thing in the Morning

The song "God Says Nothing Back" by the Wallflowers has been on my mind constantly for the last few days upon waking up. Maybe I will take some time this evening to study the lyrics and really listen to find the little things that are making it be there...



God Says Nothing Back
Seems like the world's gone underground
Where no gods or heroes dare to go down
As teardrops from a hole in heaven come
Overhead like ravens dropping down like bombs
Through the morning's silver-frosted glow
God says nothing back but I told you so
I told you so
God bless the void of my day dreams
Head back in the snow making angel wings
As slow motion dancing lights at dawn
Sail beneath a burning yellow sun
I'm calling out from the deep ends of my bones
Time says nothing back but I told you so
I told you so
Still waters rising in my mind
Black and deep, smoke behind my eyes
Last night I could not sleep at all
I hallucinated that you were in my arms
To be in your heart I failed my own
Love says nothing back but I told you so,
I told you so
Still here reclimbing every rung
Someone saw something,
someone speak up
Back over the rotted bridge I cross
Open up these graves, let these bodies talk
Buried under leaves blood red and gold
Death says nothing back but I told you so,
I told you so
