Come a little closer it's a feeling that I can't deny |
|
I was weak, but I never thought I'd speak about the darker side |
|
Is that a tent? I could repent upon the side of the road |
|
But, I kept on going yeah I headed for another load |
|
I get up from the ground in the middle of the evening |
|
Up from the ground in the middle of the night |
|
Oh, I testify |
|
I was laid upon the grave by a preacher's hand I cannot lie |
|
And, I forsake the many vows I made to be with you tonight |
|
Could you be the salvation cause I never felt like this before |
|
And, could you lend me your hand because I'm falling back on the floor |
|
up from the ground in the middle of the morning |
|
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening |
|
Up from the ground in the middle of the night |
|
Oh, I testify |
|
On a road outside of nowhere, in the middle of the night |
|
Well I guess I hit rock bottom and the dawn was not in sight |
|
And a Tempest made of fire, onset the sky aglow |
|
And a sweet young thing called out my name |
|
And this is how it goes, she says .... |
|
'Go boy, can you hear them? Are you falling through the cracks in your eyes?' |
|
And I got down on my knees |
|
I get up from the ground in the middle of the morning |
|
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening |
|
Up from the ground and I'm falling back down |
|
Up from the ground and I testify |
|
Every cut that heals reveals a scar that you can never hope to hide |
|
All the pain that you restrain keeps buildings up deep inside |
|
If you think you're above it then it's you my friend that I implore |
|
You've got to walk before you run |
|
See the night before dawn |
|
Before you pull yourself off the floor |
|
I get up from the ground in the middle of the morning |
|
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening |
|
Up from the ground in the middle of the night |
|
Oh, I testify |
