Here Comes the Wave In

Watching shadows dancing on the wall Painting you and me before the fall Time and fate have left me in this place And reality is in my face Is this it? And just how will I know? Hiding under a blanket of snow When tomorrow is another day With bright colours over skies of grey Somewhere high above the timber line Must be some way I can redefine In this atmosphere of discontent Leaving all of this without torment Break the shackles that have kept me down Feel the fresh air, have to leave this town Moving further out, with both arms spread Ever higher up the steps ahead Here comes the wave in Let the water even everything When the morning comes All this you'll find behind you Whispering to me Is the wind that blows, and birds that sing? Dry your tears It's just something we must go through Out with the old and in with the new This is something that we have to do Through the storm, I travel in the night Find my comfort come the morning light Somewhere high above the timber line Must be some way I can redefine In this atmosphere of discontent Leaving everything without torment Here comes the wave in Let the water even everything When the morning comes All this you'll find behind you Whispering to me Is the wind that blows, and birds that sing? Dry your tears It's just something we must go through How will I know? How will I know? How will I know? How will I know? --- Here Comes the Wave In - Ásgeir
