I May Know the Word

To comfort and
This may be the time
Though this may be the hour
I may know the word

I recognize them all
It's all grey here

I may love the fruit
I may know the word
To soothe a worried face
It's all grey here
But fold my hands indifferent
If I'm on my knees gropin' in the dark
I've paced between them

But not say it
A whisper

I'd be praying for deliverance
If I'm on my knees gropin' in the dark

I may hear a sound
In fitful sleep, enough to keep their strength
Sacred and profound
Someone prove me wrong

I'd be praying for deliverance
But it's all grey here

If I'm on my knees, I'm begging now
But it's all grey to me
From the night into the day

I may know the truth
But not say it
Chasing demons down until they fall

If I'm on my knees, I'm begging now
But not taste it

If I'm on my knees, I'm begging now
But it's all grey here
From the night into the day
But not face it
Before night comes with indifference
But turn my head indifferent
But it's all grey to me
But I might waste it
With tangled threads, they riddle me to solve
I may know the way

Enough to crawl into my head

I recognize the walls inside
If I'm on my knees gropin' in the dark
Something move me
I'd be praying for deliverance
From the night into the day
