Godlight Noah Kahan

[00:11.23] There's no way out of an angry crowd
[00:14.02] Without steppin' on some toes
[00:17.13] They'll scream your name 'til the lights go out
[00:19.61] Then they'll feed you to the wolves
[00:22.74] It's hard to say who you'll be
[00:24.88] When they let those big red curtains close
[00:28.40] You know this 'cause you told me so
[00:33.18] I bet you forgot, black heels in the summertime
[00:37.68] Dad's bad cookin', though you'd be polite
[00:40.55] Honey, now you got a look that I don't recognize
[00:43.34] You pulled me aside and you said
[00:46.79] To know me is to hate me
[00:49.54] Is to hate what I've become
[00:52.11] It's to watch me as I'm fallin'
[00:54.99] From that ladder's last rung
[00:57.75] It's to feel bad, like a secret you can't keep in
[01:01.92] I'm not the way I was
[01:04.52] I'm not the way I was
[01:10.20]
[01:18.64] Were you freed within, did you leave your skin?
[01:21.38] Are you tethered in your doubt?
[01:24.24] Have you breathed it in 'til it's medicine
[01:27.28] That you cannot live without?
[01:29.84] 'Cause you came back home a fuckin' alien
[01:32.84] And we're stuck here on the ground
[01:35.69] Call your mom back, kid
[01:37.89] Before the high comes down
[01:41.05] 'Cause you forgot
[01:42.24] Black heels in the summertime
[01:45.31] Dirt road smoking on a Friday night
[01:47.93] Honey, now you got a look that I don't recognize
[01:50.86] You pulled me aside and you said
[01:54.45] To know me is to hate me
[01:57.15] Is to hate what I've become
[01:59.80] It's to watch me as I'm fallin'
[02:02.56] From that ladder's last rung
[02:05.00] It's to feel bad, like a secret you can't keep in
[02:09.29] I'm not the way I was
[02:12.16] I'm not the way I was
[02:16.08] But to feel it, to see it
[02:19.27] The look in all their eyes
[02:21.62] Is to breathe in, to be in
[02:24.12] The good grace of that Godlight
[02:26.97] It's to have it in your hands
[02:29.96] The one thing you wanted all your life
[02:34.04] It's all mine
[02:37.86] It's a hole I can't fill
[02:40.71] It's a curse I can't break
[02:43.56] And I gave my soul to it
[02:46.18] And I cannot be reclaimed
[02:48.86] I was younger then
[02:51.65] I was younger then
[02:57.13] I was young
[02:59.84] To know me is to hate me
[03:02.40] Is to hate what I've become
[03:05.28] It's to watch me as I'm fallin'
[03:08.14] From that ladder's last rung
[03:10.79] It's to feel bad, like a secret you can't keep in
[03:14.63] I'm not the way I was
[03:17.78] I'm not the way I was
[03:21.41] But to feel it, to see it
[03:24.46] The look in all their eyes
[03:27.15] Is to breathe in, to be in
[03:29.86] The good grace of that Godlight
[03:32.52] It's to have it in your hands
[03:35.35] The one thing you wanted all your life
[03:39.33] It's all mine
[03:43.52] And to feel it, to see it
[03:46.14] The look in all your eyes
[03:48.80] Is to breathe in, to be in
[03:51.50] The good grace of this Godlight
[03:54.31] It's to have it in your hands
[03:57.02] It's the one thing I wanted all my life
[04:01.53] It's all mine
[04:03.88]
