Dust
Queens Club Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You rise
You lift the weight from off your head
Amazed, I'm stunned to see the sun
We're almost there
You look me square in the eyes and I can't tell if it's you
Is it in you to free the hope you've tied?
It's crazy, I swear the sun had died
Ever since the day I was born I filled the void by crawling in arms
I think he swore to never let me go
And just because you run from the norm
I think he's saying, "Don't be alarmed"
You'll grow your hair long and swear that you can see
We'll see

Alas, you hear a whisper after you're gone
Are we still safe?
I try to tear this wall down
We build it back up again
Has Heaven dared to pull me out of the corners that I've crept into?
Is it in you to free the hope you've tied?
It's crazy, I swear the sun had died

Ever since the day I was born I filled the void by crawling in arms
I think he swore to never let me go
And just because you run from the norm
I think he's saying, "Don't be alarmed"
You'll grow your hair long and swear that you can see

Ever since the day I was born I filled the void by crawling in arms
I think he swore to never let me go
And just because you run from the norm
I think he's saying, "Don't be alarmed"




You'll grow your hair long and swear that you can see
We'll see
