God only knows
How I long
To stand upon the shore
He’s standing on
Just to be home
And hear the song
Of Ten thousand angels
Gathered at his throne
God only knows
Where I’ve been
Crawling in the dirt
Again
I lost that control
I never had
Now if only I’d
Remember that
One life, one life
Oh God
Am I out here wasting it?
Look at all the marks I’ve missed
One take, one try
That’s all
Hey I’m flying on the wind
Wait I’m falling off a cliff
God only knows
Who I am
When I don’t even recognize myself
I’m paralyzed
But paradisе
Is ringing like a bell
To shake mе from a spell
One life, one life
Oh God
Am I out here wasting it?
Look at all the marks I’ve missed
One take, one try
That’s all
Hey I’m flying on the wind
Wait I’m falling off a cliff
I gotta scream
To express what I really mean
Out here all alone
Hoping nobody can hear me
Please allow me
To confess what’s been festering
Underneath, notably
I bury all my flaws
But they keep reappearing
Plus why is life summed up in one word
Longing
Said why God why
To the sky
And he told me
Son could it be
Your perspective is teeny tiny
Not every wall is
Made for climbing
Not every thread
Is made for unwinding
Your sins are dead and still dying
And longing keeps you from denying
The life that you were made for finding
You come up short
I’m here behind
These tears you cry
I’ll wipe, in time
