Testo you in everything - Gang of Youths

Testo della canzone you in everything (Gang of Youths), tratta dall'album angel in realtime.

I prayed the day you passed, but the heavens didn't listen
So we held you 'til your dark skin dulled to fair
Went out to smoke a dart, finally get some time alone
But just broke down and held my wife beneath the stairs
'Cause I saw our little life ascending from the street
And flung from overpass to overpass, collapsing in a heap
But to cradle you the last days was an honor and a miserable feat
I still need you in everything
I will need you in everything
The places you have walked, I consider holy ground
And I will love the things you love despite my prior thoughts about
And I'll think of you each day as if to nourish me from inside out
Now I speak to you in tongues and seek for you in pain
And long for echoes in the silence born of islands and of rain
Every hymn and all the sounds that bind the many of us fiercely to the sea
I will hear you in everything
I will hear you in everything
I prayed for you in song and kneaded through your veins
And chased the morsels of your voice and gave you shots to ease the pain
When you asked us for some wine, we bought the best stuff
And we laughed and watched you drink
Now I smell you in the air and I pause to breathe you in
And I have torn apart your closet and devoured the scent within
You ascend in every skyline
All the water and the streets of Grey Lynn
I will feel you in everything
I will feel you in everything
How do I face the world? Or raise a fucking kid?
Or see beauty in the Earth and all its majesty replete
When I've spent the better part of my twenties
Doing self-indulgent bullshit on repeat?
So if there's something of you here in the ever-changing light
Holding close to my unsteady heart and bonding me to life
May your spirit never leave me in the boredom
and the utterly sublime
'Cause I will look for you every time
I will look for you every time
It'll torture me at first, then it'll hurt a little less
And I will pour through every piece of you 'til nothing new is left
Just your eyes in my reflection
and the heavy thing now beating in my chest
We held you in your bed, we washed you in your sheets
And sang you hymnals from the islands 'til you drifted off to sleep
Then I kissed the hands that raised me for the last time
And stared out into the street
I will see you in everything
I will see you in everything
I will see you in everything
I will see you in everything
