IF YOUR EYES ARE CLEAR LIKE CRYSTAL BALLS YOUR SOUL REFLECTS BACK THE SUN.
IF YOUR EYES ARE CLOUDED OVER, WHO KNOWS HOW DEEP THE DARKNESS RUNS.
WHO KNOWS?
WHO KNOWS?
HOW DEEP IT GOES.
DON’T BE TRICKED BY A MAN IN A SHIMMERING COAT,
HE’S ALL MIRRORS AND SMOKE,
HES ALL TALK BUT NO SHOW.
I KNOW, YOU KNOW
IT’S A FAST WORLD SO YOU BETTER TAKE IT TO GO
BUT GO SLOW
TAKE IT REAL NICE AND SLOW.
WHEN GRACE GREW TALL, UP TO THE HEAVENS
I SAW HER REACHING DOWN TO THE WORLD.
WHEN GRACE GREW TALL, SHE LEFT A PROMISE
THAT SHE WOULD NEVER LET US GO
WHEN GRACE GREW TALL, YEAH.
I KEEP SCRAPING AT MY SKIN,
TRYING TO CLEAN UP THIS MESS I GOT MY SELF IN
TWO, THREE, FOUR COUNTING DOWN TO THE END OF THE WORLD.
GOOD PEOPLE DON’T GO TO HEAVAN
ITS FAITH THAT GETS YOU IN THAT’S A GIVEN
I WONT EVER LET YOU DOWN, NOW THAT I GOT A HOLD ON YOU
I GOT A REAL NICE HOLD.
WHEN GRACE GREW TALL, UP TO THE HEAVENS
I SAW HER REACHING DOWN TO THE WORLD.
WHEN GRACE GREW TALL, SHE LEFT A PROMISE
THAT SHE WOULD NEVER LET US GO
WHEN GRACE GREW TALL, YEAH.
I FEEL NICE
LIKE SUGAR AND SPICES, YEAH
I FEEL GOOD, OH SO GOOD INSIDE
MY BONES ARE LIGHT LIKE FEATHERS AND SNOW
TAKING OFF IN FLIGHT IM LIFTING UP,
IM GONNA GET IT RIGHT.
WHEN GRACE GREW TALL, UP TO THE HEAVENS
I SAW HER REACHING DOWN TO THE WORLD.
WHEN GRACE GREW TALL, SHE LEFT A PROMISE
THAT SHE WOULD NEVER LET US GO
WHEN GRACE GREW TALL, YEAH.
