"Spiritual Health" lyrics

Chapped lips from keeping secrets
Black eyes from staying up all night
I go out looking for eternity
In paperbacks and orange street lights
And what you'll say you heard the first time -

Their worn hands and young lovers' hearts
Just keeping it down, keeping it down
Forever is where I always start
But I gave it up
I gave it up -

The way they talk about their prayers
I dream of moving to the city
But is it in the universe plan?
And does it really mean anything?
I fall in love just like everyone

Is it all we ever really want?
Just keeping it down, keeping it down
I still want to ask you to come stay
But I gave it up
I gave it up

Would you let me walk forever
When darkness comes to keep me company?
You know the frustrations of a foggy mind
And I know all about humidity
Is it fear? Are you afraid?
I am afraid

Just keeping it down, keeping it down
No fear in love but all the pain
