"Rolling Away" lyrics

"Rolling Away"

Sleeping through the afternoon light
Feels like the only way to hide
Drawing down dark shrouds on the curtains
Drawing down on the walls in cursive

I'm writing words to confirm
I'm rolling away
A lost bird in a whirlwind
I'm blowing away

I want to feel your wings around me
Because a strange light is abounding
Black hole sunrise on the horizon
The life boat's capsized and the black hole is rising

Been singing songs all along
About floating away
A flightless bird in a hurricane
I'm blowing away
I shut my eyes and I realize
I'm rolling away

If there's really, really love?
Is there a quicker route to take?
Is it ground down and rolled up?
Or purified and free based?
Is there holy, holy love?
Where the cat has got your tongue
Where the words you try to say
Can't bear the weight and roll away

If there's really, really love?
Is there a deeper route to take?
Is it ground down and rolled up?
Or purified and free based?
Is there holy, holy love?
Where the cat has got your tongue
Where the words you try to say
Can't bear the weight and roll away
