I Know That Sound Lyrics
Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
I know that sound
It's the night train passing
It won't slow down
Like some hope everlastingSixty nights in the desert
And the truth is still so far away
Through all kinds of weather
Wake up to the same dayI'm standing on the shoreline
And my life is so far from here
Drink to the end of the bottle
And try to find some cheerJust you and I
'Cause there's safety in numbers
Two wings to fly
We are lightning and thunderWe stood at the edge of the forest
Daring to see who'd go in
Like trying to join the chorus
But really scared to singStanding on the shoreline
And your life is so far from here
So we drink to the end of the bottle
And try to find some cheerOnce you were a dancer
And your dream was loud and clear
And you gave the world an answer
Made the questions disappearWhile the world is turning
I don't know if you've been around here
It's a spiritual dessert
And our leaders don't have an ideaI'm standing on the shoreline
And my life is so far from here
So we drink to the end of the bottle
And try to drown this fearOnce you were a dancer
And your dream was loud and clear
And the world is spinning
And spinning and spinning
While we try to find our way out of here
