Hugo Grayling - Whether Angles Hover Over, Or

Whether angels hover over, or
Whether angels hover over, or

Do
Do you know the way
Do you know the way to my best friend's house
He's dead
It's locked
He's dust
It's empty
I couldn't save him
I ( I I I I I I ) I was young
I was busy
I was too self-absorbed
I was living in my head and I didn't see the signs
Didn't want to see it
Told me all the voices on the record that he heard
And his morning as a ghost and I said
That's you, isn't that you
Alright, okay, you love to tell a story
Stained glass window of the church of my youth
Broken by a bottle filled with bees
Talk of what we could become
Dead
Locked
Empty
But now I'm different, okay
Every time I hear about a crash, an arm
A leg, detached
I'm hit
I'm changed
I'm hurt
I'm me
I hope that you can hear me
Now I have to hear "you did everything you could, you tried
You couldn't have known, seen"--couldn't have seen
Who do you think you are, such vanity
Just last week I had to hear a speech where a woman stood up
Talked about possibility
Do you know what that means, possibility
Do you know what that means, do you really?
Well that means that you could have done something
Could have done something? Yeah but you didn't
If that's true then there's nothing you can do
Nothing you can do
But relive it

Whether angels hover over, or
Whether angels hover over, or
Whether angels hover over, or
