Salem Hill - Noon lyrics

Artist: Salem Hill

album: The Unseen Cord


Noon: not a time
For these street lights
And dancing they -
Like some parade perverse.
A red wake-up call -
Gut checks for all
For what is found
Lurking around the curve.
The mind won't let it in.
In the stomach thoughts begin.
Just give me but a peek.
I need to hear them speak.
To let their mother know
Her prayers have been heard.
Waiting in chairs
Not built for tears.
An anxious room -
No one immune it seems.
Despite broken bones
Mine will come home.
God, who could face
Leaving this place alone?
The mind won't let it in.
In the stomach thoughts begin.
And the days ahead serve as fertile soil
For the seeds sown with the flashing lights at Noon.
Is this just retribution?
Punishment for careless words?
The "swerve at the curve"
A real life collision this time.
You have the most insightful mind.
Fracture my bones, I'll still stand
But stab at my heart
Through my kids and I fall apart.
So if you are involved and if you're in control,
Then I am full of rage asking bloody questions to the sky.
And if you feel for us and love us like a child,
Then why the whole ordeal?
What's the guarded secret to our pain?
They say you are involved.
They say you're in control.
Of what I just don't see.
Answer me my questions if you dare!
Up and then
Down again
Still no sleep
Worry deep.
Will she dance?
What's the chance?
Will she walk?
Comes the clock.
What'd he say
Look away
Hide the tears
Show no fear.
Keep it strong
Roll along
Shroud the doubt
Ride it out.
Questioning.
Wrestling with the One and the Son.
Try to trust.
Too unjust.
Who am I?
Where was I?
Play it close
Never show
How you feel
Got too real.
You OK?
Hid away.
Will she talk?
Comes the Clock.
Just like me
Never see
What's inside
Never cry.
Bottled tight
Up all night
Pennies thoughts
Can't be bought.
Questioning.
Wrestling with the One and the Son.
Try to trust.
Too unjust.
Who am I?
Where was I?
Play it close
Never show
How you feel
Got too real.
You OK?
Hid away.
Will she talk?
Comes the Clock.
Nights wasts in worry for the day
And although you were always in my way,
I very rarely saw
Or recognized the awe
Of miracles that daily were displayed.
And when all is done - so much unsaid -
And all the glass has long been swept away
The saw dust of time
Absorbs more than grime
And the black marks fresh have all now bled to grey.
When you slide
I'm by your side
And in my mind
I'm holding you tight
Just close your eyes.
Let's wish it all right.
And through your pain
I remain.
So don't despair - and keep holding on
And I'll be here when everyone's gone.
Never throught
I'd get caught
In such need.
Intercede.
Crisis Mode.
Overload.
Attitude?
Gratitude.
Through the fog
Dialogue
With the One - with the Son.
Growing trust.
Maybe just.
Ready now.
Show me how.
It isn't lost on me
This guarantee
That tragedy
Will visit every man
No matter how he prays.
We bob and weave and dodge
That heavy hand
But still it lands.
It comes right down to this:
We stay down or we rise.
The breathing returns eventually
And things that were lost come back to me
And I realize
When looking to the skies
You were my strength along the way.
When you slide
I'm by your side
And in my mind
I'm holding you tight
Just close your eyes.
Let's wish it all right.
And through your pain
I remain.
So don't despair - and keep holding on
And I'll be here when everyone's gone.
When you slide
I'm by your side
And in my arms
I'm holding you tight
Just close your eyes.
I'll make it all right.
And through your pain
I remain
So don't despair - I'm still holding on
And I'll be here were everyone has gone.
To know you're in control
And with such love for us,
Then what have we to fear?
