bill mallonee - audible sigh lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
1, 2, 3

[verse 1]
all these vain distractions
yeah, and the worship of the buck
somewhere i think we gave out
at this club called the out of luck
it’s deeper than the blackness
yeah, that all the blacktop holds
starving for an omen
and the sp-ces, they’re wide open

[chorus]
and it’s where you cast your heart tonight
from your less than humble home
and out here, don’t you learn to bleed
like something from a deeper need?
and all that’s underneath unheard
still unspoken, in other words
the open sky
audible sigh

[verse 2]
a simple sign, some good report
some human interaction
the feeling’s long since disappeared
reported missing in action
an image lands the knockout punch
at the end of every quarter
yeah, and trends, they are tomorrow’s landmines
we are always tripping over

[chorus]
and it’s where you cast your heart tonight
from your less than humble home
and out here, don’t you learn to bleed
like something from a deeper need?
yeah, and all that’s underneath unheard
still unspoken, in other words
the open sky
audible sigh

[verse 3]
yeah, and all the common standards
and the measurements you use
to judge the labors of your hands
your threshold of abuse
yeah, and failure, she’s a newfound friend
you let her sleep once on the floor
and when you rise to check out
yeah, she follows to the door

[chorus]
and it’s where you cast your heart tonight
from your less than humble home
and out here, don’t you learn to bleed
like something from a deeper need?
and all that’s underneath unheard
still unspoken, in other words
the open sky
audible sigh

[verse 4]
is it a sign you’re getting sicker?
is it a sign you’re almost well?
the way it is with skin and bones
well, who on earth could tell?
and you pitch your tent, and you sing your song
by morning, you’re forgotten
and we’re falling off that old soapbox
and the chasm has no bottom

[chorus]
and it’s where you cast your heart tonight
from your less than humble home
and out here, don’t you learn to bleed
like something from a deeper need?
and all that’s underneath unheard
still unspoken, in other words
the open sky
audible sigh
