Insolence - Shearwater

Sometimes I think I welcome in

What you are frightened of

My thoughts become undisciplined

And then I slip away

It is effortless, effortless

In the glow along the barren road

I see you shivering

My heart begins to separate

From a silence that would bury our lives

With an insolence

Insolence

Effortless, ranging and diving

Effortless as fire

Oh child

Where were you?

Where were you

All your life?

All your life

Inside a chrysalis, writhing

And it’s real

And it’s real

Joy, it’s real

One more time

It’s real

Joy, it’s real

Joy, it’s real

One more time

It’s real

One more time
