"Delta" lyrics

"Delta"

Do not lie to us
Don't hide your eyes from us
I will take this offered cup
I will sit upon your floor
Tell your stories
Tell of your pain
That's what I came here for
And your children come and go as you weep

But what have I
If I have not love I am a waste
My words are empty vessels
If I do nothing in this place
And we can scream into the shadows
And it's good that we can
But walk with me, I think we'll find a way
And walk with me, I think we'll find a way

But I'll meet you at the delta
Where the rivers run into the sea
And I'll meet you at the delta
What's behind, I can clearly see
But that beyond, that's beyond me

When it feels like nothing else matters
Will you put your arms around me
When it feels like nothing else matters
Will you put your arms around me

Does your love prefer the other
Or does your love just makes you feel good
Does my love prefer the other
Or does my love just make me feel good

When it's all just dust to dust
And that's how it will be
When it's all just nothingness
That means nothing to me

When it's all just dust to dust
And how it will be
When it's all just nothingness
That means nothing to me

Does my love prefer the other
Or does my love just make me feel good
Does my love prefer the other
Or does my love just make me feel good

When it feels like nothing else matters
Will you put your arms around me
When it feels like nothing else matters
Will you put your arms around me

Does your love prefer the other
Or does my love just make me feel good
