Anytime I’ve struggled on Against the course out on my own; Everytime I’d burn Through the world I’d see That the world, it burns through me. But when I, I’d let go, My struggling form, My willing soul Everytime would flow Through the world I’d see That the world, it flows through me. Picture a grave, Picture six feet freshly dug, The sharp temporary walls at the long-term cliff edge of the world, Light and air find some new deepness there and usher down the sky where one stands by, And tries make sense of it. But try measure loss, Measure the silence of a house, The unheard footsteps at the doorway, The unemployment of the mouth, The waking up having forgotten, And remembering again the full extent of what forever is. With each grave, I think of loss and I can only think of you And I couldn’t measure it. Anytime I’ve struggled on Against the course out on my own; Everytime I’d burn Through the world I’d see That the world, it burns through me. But when I, I’d let go, My struggling form, My willing soul Everytime would flow Through the world I’d see That the world, it flows through me. #Hozier #ThroughMe #EatYourYoung
