Mark Lanegan - Gazing From The Shore Lyrics

No man can know
Where the dark heart of god is at
In the garbage or the weeds
Or the crest of the mountain top

Hanging from a line
Gonna fall a long way
By fingernails and grime
Gonna fall a long way

Somebody's knocking
Is anyone there?
I was a carpenter, building this house
And now it's ash and air

Everything will bleed
There's no higher truth than that
The pomegranate tree
The ink and the mountain cat

Hanging from a line
You're gonna fall a long way

I'm out here knocking
And nobody's home
I was a sailor, lost in the storm
Of my own making there
Please, someone leave a light on
A beacon for me to find my way
I washed up on an island
My lifeboat was crushed upon the waves

Don't leave me standing here
Just gazing from the shore
Just gazing from the shore
Don't leave me standing here

Somebody's knocking
Is anyone home?
I see a halo hanging in air
Through a window there

You could have left a light on
A candle for me to find my way
A simple wooden handle
To open up the door to another day

Don't leave me standing here
Just gazing from the shore
Don't leave me standing here
Just gazing from the shore
Just gazing from the shore
