Grave Concern Lyrics - Parables For Wooden Ears - Powderfinger

Somebody screaming that the end is nigh 

Never seen nobody with hopes so high 

Uneasy feeling creeping up on me 

Justify a weary trinity 

And I can hardly contain my joy 

Let me hear just a little bit more 

Will its release ever set me free? 

Creepy feeling easing up on me 

And I'm covered in a shroud of mediocrity 

No entry to the place where answers lie 

It's a language unavailable to you and I 

And I can hardly contain my joy 

Let me hear just a little bit more 

Will its release ever set me free? 

Does it devour everything I believe? 

Every fear and superstition I breed 

I can hardly contain my 

Sliding now 

Goodbye hesitation and doubt 

Sliding down 

Down the hollow that swallows the rules that I follow 

Is there a turnaround? 

Will the spirit rise from a corpse that's been rotten' in the ground? 

Sliding down 

Goodbye hesitation and doubt 

Sliding down 

Down the hollow that swallows the rules that I follow 

Is there a turnaround? 

Will the spirit rise from a corpse that's been rotten' in the ground?
