Verse 1
Don’t Talk In Tones So Tense And So Terse
‘Cause Even Friends Soften Blows When They Say Things That Hurt
And I Go Too Fast, That’s Everyone’s Note
Lead Actress Of A Play Called Girl With No Hope
And Furthermore, I Can’t Pretend
I Didn’t Know I’d Be What I Pretended To Be, ‘Cause
Mother Night’s A Book I Tend To Yearly Re-Read
Is Feeling Better Really Just Forgetting
The Feel Of The Weathеr When There Was No Morе Bloodletting
Chorus
The World Is Charged With God’s Grandeur
Baby Jesus Sleeping Softly In His Manger
I’m Outside The Stable, Lonely Wanderer
Carryin’ My Heart That’s However Large As Her
I Get On The Road, But Everything I See Is Dead
I Try To Smoke Weed, It Hurts My Head
I’m Sniffin’ Poppers Till My Nostrils Bled
Taking Every Single Lover I Could Bring Into My Bed
Verse 2
If I Was Less Scared And My Head Was More Clear
I Could See You Around And Not Need To Disappear
I Have To Lie Down, Go Watch The Secret Of Nimh
I Am Just Like That Mouse If She Had An Account On Hinge
If I Shivered, It Was Merely For Wellbeing
In Your Quiver Spanned Ending To Beginning
I Could Bask In The Sensations Of Strength
But There’s Nothing Like Silence To Suggest Unlimited Space
Chorus
The World Is Charged With God’s Grandeur
Baby Jesus Sleeping Softly In His Manger
I’m Outside The Stable, Lonely Wanderer
Carryin’ My Heart That’s However Large As Her
I Get On The Road, But Everything I See Is Dead
I Try To Smoke Weed, It Hurts My Head
I’m Sniffin’ Poppers Till My Nostrils Bled
Taking Every Single Lover I Could Bring Into My Bed
