Story behind the song
This song is as much about struggling about religion as it is about struggling with having a father who is a religious figure. The emphasis is on wanting to be real and to try harder to work through differences and problems, but the song certainly caries the weight of some of these issues.
Lyrics
Ia€™ve got no watch or place to be
I can only sink so far into this symphony
Skies have never been so blue
With me so far away from you
So openly alone, but not so lonely
So openly at home, but even stars change in this night
How an ocean has a name I do not know
Like Morgana€™s Bay or Wednesday or Thursday
Such territory cana€™t be claimed
But somewhere past the thunder-waves
I oughta be amazed, oughta be amazed oughta be amazed
Still knocking twelve thousand miles across the water
Therea€™s a man crying cause he almost knows hea€™s lost his daughter
She doesna€™t seem to know what to do
And I cana€™t seem to be right when I forget about it
Yeah I brush you off my shoulder and I dona€™t let you stand next to me
Ita€™s horrible you see and I see it,
But trying it too hard, and wea€™re bad at this
trying is too hard, and we're bad at this
trying is too hard
But we havena€™t tried too hard here.
Believe me
And I wish it were easy enough to have one good force against the devil
Or a devil to blame this on
But to believe in truth, I cana€™t always believe you
A cold breath separates us, Ia€™ve left the world alone
And this is my get-awaya€¦ but I decide to take you home
I need something to believe,
Believe me.
