Jim James - Regions of Light and Sound of God

There is so much wrong-
and far more to come before long,
.....and I can't put any of it right.
NO! I can't put any of it right.
.....Oh! I can't put any of it right.

I've believed that I might have
made a few more differences
in the whole of my long life.
But I've even failed to nail
the absolute safety of me.
I've failed to nail
the near safety of anybody.
And I still live in fear
.....in this so-called land of the free.

There is so much wrong-
and far more to come before long,
.....and I can't put any of it right.
NO! I can't put any of it right.
.....Oh! I can't put any of it right.

I've believed that I might have
made a few more differences
in the whole of my long life.
But I've even failed to nail
.....the absolute safety of me.
I've failed to nail
the near safety of anybody.
And I still live in fear
.....in this so-called land of the free.
.....in this so-called land of the free.

All I've really had is tears-
.....tears in increasing quantities.
All I've really had is tears-
.....tears in limitless quantities.
Failing.
.....Failing.
..........Failing to find hope.
I didn't know how to cope with
lakes of heartbreaking loneliness.
I didn't know how to cope with
lakes of heartbreaking loneliness.

Oh! I really need human company
but humans have no need of me.
.....I'm aching for honesty.
Oh! I still need human company
but humans have no need of me.
.....I'm aching for honesty.
