The First Time With... 🔊 (BBC 6 Music) - 3

Like a pile of bricks, falling,
crushing you under its load.
Like a mighty storm, rolling,
pushing you out off the road.

All your shine is fading down,
all your drive is draining out.
All your hopes dissolve like dust,
all your dreams are left in doubt.

And you never see it coming,
it arrives out of the blue.
Suddenly your soul is sinking,
and your mind is out of true.

I’m gonna wait it out and let it pass,
I’m gonna hunker down and see this through,
I’m gonna close my eyes and rest my mind,
I’m gonna grasp at straws—it’s all that I can do.
Ooh ooh...

Like an evil echo, talking,
telling me I can’t be free.
Like a set of massive shackles,
and patience is the only key.

I know it’s not of my own doing,
that voice is surely not my friend.
I cast you out, oh foul spirit,
so get thee gone out of my head.

And you never see it coming,
it arrives out of the blue.
Suddenly your soul is sinking,
and your mind is out of true.

I’m gonna wait it out and let it pass,
I’m gonna hunker down and see this through,
I’m gonna close my eyes and rest my mind,
I’m gonna grasp at straws—it’s all that I can do.
Ooh ooh...

Who is the prisoner?
Who is the jailer?
I play both of these roles.
Who is the demon?
Who is the angel?
Both are parts of my soul.

I’ve known joy, I’ve known sadness,
I have virtues, I have flaws.
I have a problem with no solution...
all I can do is grasp at straws.
