lyrics

The Morning Song

The sky’s getting red in the east
I didn’t want to wake you, but I couldn’t let you sleep
Now we’re wasting our days
In so many ways
But the sky just gets dark and we go back to sleep

The sparks could just die in our heads
If no-one else sees them then they really don’t exist
And we’ve spent so much time
Hoping water is wine
That we’re missing the point and we go back to sleep

And daybreak is finally coming
Get ready to make your mark
‘Cause you know for sure
Like you’ve seen it before
You never get long ‘til it’s dark

Believe what you like it’s no use
‘Cause hope’s like an illness, and we haven’t found a cure
I’m not saying that’s good
And I’d change if I could
But the way that I feel I’ll just go back to sleep

And daybreak is finally coming
Get ready to make your mark
‘Cause you know for sure
Like you’ve seen it before
You never get long ‘til it’s dark
No, you never get long ‘til it’s dark

You say that you’re trying your hardest
I tell you, you’ve got to try harder
Harder

‘Cause daybreak is finally coming
Get ready to make your mark
‘Cause you know for sure
Like you’ve seen it before
You just get one chance
Only one chance
Before it begins to get dark

Gorman Glasgow, UK

Dark moods with soaring vocals - fierce but fragile, harrowing but hopeful. From solitary piano and voice with delay-laden textures to sizzling guitars with anthemic hooks, Gorman are the long, silent fall through darkness AND the fiery, reverberating impact at the end. ... more
