I know, I know, I know, I knew before you got home
This world you're in now, it doesn't have to be alone, I'll get there somehow
'Cause I know, I know, I know, when even springtime feels cold
But I will learn to breathe this ugliness you see
So we can both be there and we can both share the dark
And in our honesty, together we will rise
Out of our night minds and into the light, at the end of the fight
You were blessed by a different kind of inner view it's all magnified
The highs will make you fly, but the lows make you want to die
And I was once there, hanging from that very ledge where you are standing
So I know, I know, I know, it's easier to let go
But I will learn to breathe this ugliness you see
So we can both be there and we can both share the dark
And in our honesty, together we will rise out of our night minds And into the light at the end of the fight
And in our honesty, together we will rise out of our night minds And into the light at the end of the fight
Missy Higgins
If you search ”Night Minds” on google or youtube you can see her amazing performance of this song. I like that the first time I listen to it I feel like the person she is talking to, but by about three times through it I feel able to be the one reaching out.
