"Everything All Together" lyrics

Kae Tempest Lyrics

"Everything All Together"

I draw down from the well where it gathers
The illusion is heavy
And it takes a maverick to stand knee deep and keep pouring
Life force in a formless void
Sitting in the waiting room
All I can see is a room full of fallen leaves, dreaming of the tree
Saying, I don't want to give you everything given to me
So let's you, you, you and I do this till we die
And love each other
As if every line was a ladder we can climb through time
I ran back to the child I was
And I saw a stranger in a jacket that you wore and hurt me to remember the shrinking
Of fully formed person to slim definition
But when the dark feels like it won't ever lift
That's when the sky grows pale, and the morning lives
So we just take it day by day
Because staying doesn't mean you never want to run away
It means, if ever you open your eyes, I will be there
Yeah
They used to tell their children not to stare
And now I'm picking up the slack but my hands are slipping
So I stand on the line that goes back to the breath before speaking
All I'm saying is
I'm just trying to be someone the child I used to be, could believe in
