Lyrics
Moses
Written by Kenya Kondo
V.
Moses was in pain
He is my mother's brother
He drank from the bottle
And the bottle took him over
And did he try to put up a fight
And did he try to make a stand
Or did he let her take him in
Gave himself up for lie
Ch.
When the rain is coming and darkness falls
I reach for my sanity in the shape of a bottle
Brown glass to colour my world
Green eyes to turn my grey
And even though it burns my hand
I can't let go, I've got to stay
V.
And when you look at him
Tell me what you see
A broken man on the street
A king in his castle waving at me
And all he wants is for the pain
To go away, to go away
He's broken in can't take it in
Take the pain, take the pain
Ch.
V.
Some of us never feel this pain
Some of us feel it everyday
All of us want it to go away
Take the pain, take the pain
Ch.
Outro.
And when the rain is coming and darkness falls
I'll reach for you
I'll reach for you
And when the rain is coming and darkness falls
I'll pray for you
I'll pray for you
