lyrics

I’m forever losing sleep, hoping you will see
My words, written out on the window
I’M T-R-Y-I-N-G
Held by the weight of a dream, the last I’ll ever need
My radio plays in the grass, you laying next to me

We’re all searching for some kind of meaning we can’t believe in
I’m just trying to get through to the clearing, beyond the trees
I spent five thousand nights, building up a courage you alone will see
So please…Take it easy on me

I fell away from my purpose
A doubt distilled deep in me
Watching the river run dry, getting thirsty…
I fuelled the fires in your desert
Nearly drowned in your plastic seas
I’d suffer a million miles, just to hear you say no to me

[Bridge]
Take it easy on me

Too many people got greedy
Throwing up buildings and cutting down trees
Pressing my face to the glass, but I don’t want to see
I’ll pin my hopes to an angel
Right here in my garden, the Vision I see
Hoping to fly with you, away from this misery

Home is a place where I feel no pain
Home is anywhere I feel ok
Home is you still smiling at me, soaked in Scottish rain
No way…Take it easy on me
Take it easy on me, Take it easy

Alone on a ledge
Nothing is real, here in my garden
Except my hands, in front of me

Show me the things that make me only human
Show me the places hurt by the things I see
Throw me into the heart of the burning sun, when there’s nothing else to see
Oh, please…
Take it easy on me
