"New Song" lyrics

"New Song"

Far off hymns and funeral marches sound the same again
My ears are worn and weary strangers in a strange land
And I need a new song
I need a new song

And all I am is breath and vapour and shadows
And all I have is what I need, this I know
That I need a new song
Yeah I need a new song

Waiting in the night for you Lord
Burning in the sky for you, you ohh

Prayers and aching in my body, in my lungs
Swear the bones around my heart are coming undone
Cause I, I need a new song
I need a new song

So I'm waiting in the night for you Lord
Burning in the sky for you, you
Waiting in the night for you, you
I'm burning in the sky for you

Words are failing
My melodies falter
My voice is breaking
My heart is burning
'Cause blessing and honour
Glory and power
Praise and worship
They belong to you

I need a new I need a new
Need a new I need a new
Need a new I sing a new song

Need a new I need a new
Need a new I need a new
Need a new so I sing a new song, yeah
I need a new I need a new
I need a new need a new
I need a new so I sing a new song

Far off hymns and funeral marches

All I am is breath and vapour and shadows
And all I have is what I need and this I know
