"Mallory" lyrics - DAVID GRAY
Ah, to be lost, however briefly
Lost in a place, yeah, such as this
Was to be free of the shackles of the known roads
Yeah, to be free of all that is
I cleaved to the wind and I saw it far beneath me
The whale of a lie, something blue among the trees
The face of the wave that stole my breath as it engulfed me
The print of my eye on all it sees
[Chorus:]
Deaf to reason, calling out to me
Deaf to reason, crying out
Deaf to reason, calling out to me
She spoke and my head was full of murmurs like a green field
That last that we saw, he disappeared into clouds
Should that moment arise, well I'll be running, I'll be spring heeled
The taste of your words inside my mouth
The taste of your words inside my mouth
The taste of your words inside my mouth
[Chorus:]
Deaf to reason, calling out to me
Deaf to reason, crying out
Deaf to reason, calling out to me
[Outro:]
Our shadows at dawn
Our shadows at dawn
Oh my god
Our shadows at dawn
Well they were rising up to meet us
Our shadows at dawn
Oh my god
Our shadows at dawn
Yeah, they were rising up to meet us
Our shadows at dawn
Oh my god
