Lyrics
Teacher, I feel the eye
See time break over me
I'll not be unafraid
Time will turn to me
How that I hold such little faith
And still I slenderly
Know even myself tonight
Time will turn to me
The weight of silence deepens
And leans harder on my heart
I can offer up the truth of me
But I'm not holding very much
I'm not holding very much
When all the past uncovers me cold
I smother everything
Not least in the rags of my arms
Time will turn to me
And standing in the patterns are
The proof I came to be
Teacher, I did not know how
Time will turn to me
Makes weaning shameful how I
That throws focus on our lives
And a darkened independency
I'm not holding very much
I'm not holding very much
So I stop before your rising shore
Uncertain as the tide
And a form of darkness closes
It always closes And I wanted to lie
I wanted so much
And I wanted to try
That something quietly draws a line
Through all of my abstract pain
That so ordinary I think
As if it should find me
At once so alone
And it always does
It always does
But I can't say "bill you"
And I can't count the ways I love you
