about

Words and music originally written by Newsome c.1997

lyrics

I feel like deliverying myself
Setting my soldiers free
To lie in the long summer grass
Just let them be
But I feel like I'm deluding myself
Sitting here on fire
While the storm breaks outside
And my eyes look down
From burning black sun

Cooling in its fire
A long wait over
Fully able to lie
Down with the enemy
Sleep 'til its dawn
Lie awake and say
Lie awake and say

I'm in love with the world
And it's in love with me
I'm in love with the world
And I sleep so easily

I decided to change my name
And read uncomfortable words
Where I am right and I am wrong
And call my friend
A blazing black sun

Cooling in its fire
His long wait over
So able to lie
Down with me as enemy
Sleeping through dawn
Awaking to say
He awakes to say

I'm in love with the world
And it's in love with me
I'm in love with the world
And she's in ove with me
I'm in love with the world
And it's in love with me
I'm in love with your world
And I sleep so easily
