Witness by Mew Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Order, and nearly the time for empty rain
Describes me better
Or maybe, the you and the I and your night sky eyes
Would mean we fold, fold, collapse
[Chorus]
And I can see through
Waves hand, one less you
Without it was torn in two
They coloured our lips
Green flash lit
As if we lived out in nature
[Verse 2]
Listen, they’re shouting the slogans we forgot
As time went with us
I know now, we were never young in the mesh of youth
And we are told, told, to love
[Chorus]
And I can see through
Waves hand, one less you
Without it was torn in two
They coloured our lips
Green flash lit
As if we lived out in nature
[Bridge]
Scarred with no pain
Slow day, blown away
I’m a reprobate
Our ways don’t change
Scarred with no pain
Slow day, blown away
I’m a reprobate
Our ways don’t change
Order, and nearly the time for empty rain
Describes me better
Or maybe, the you and the I and your night sky eyes
Would mean we fold, fold, collapse
[Chorus]
And I can see through
Waves hand, one less you
Without it was torn in two
They coloured our lips
Green flash lit
As if we lived out in nature
[Verse 2]
Listen, they’re shouting the slogans we forgot
As time went with us
I know now, we were never young in the mesh of youth
And we are told, told, to love
[Chorus]
And I can see through
Waves hand, one less you
Without it was torn in two
They coloured our lips
Green flash lit
As if we lived out in nature
[Bridge]
Scarred with no pain
Slow day, blown away
I’m a reprobate
Our ways don’t change
Scarred with no pain
Slow day, blown away
I’m a reprobate
Our ways don’t change
