Morning Light

The American situation

Is on our minds again

And I don't know if

I've been here before

We would try to go to sleep

But we're running around in circles

For fear of falling down we can't get up

And I wait for the morning light

To burn away the slings and arrowsflying through the night

And I am home

But I am not a man

They will try to take the things

That you can't hold down with your hands

So hold them down

A war across an ocean

Is like a dream from which you've woken

If you don't like what you seethen go to sleep

But the smell of smoke is in your hair

And your heavy heart is always there

It's always there

It's always there

It's always there

And I wait for the morning light

To burn away the slings and arrowsflying through the night

And I am home

But I am not a man

They will try to take your crown

If you can't hold it down

In the darkness of the winter time

I will try to take you home

In the long grass of evening time

And I wait for the morning light

To burn away the slings and arrowsflying through the night

And we must wait for this to pass us by

And I will try to close my eyes

I will try to close my eyes

And I wait for the morning light

To burn away the slings and arrowsflying through the night

And I am home

But I am not a man

I will try to take you home

If you can't hold it down

So hold it down

So hold it down

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
