Correction Lyrics I May Know the Word (Paradise Is There Version) by Natalie Merchant

Lyrics

I may know the word
But not
Say it
I may know the truth
But not face
It
I may hear a sound
A whisper, sacred and profound
But turn my head
Indifferent

I may know the word
But not
Say it
I may love the fruit
But not taste
Taste it
And I may know the way
To comfort and to soothe a worried face
But fold my hands
Indifferent

If I'm on my knees I'm begging now
If I'm on my knees I'm groping in the dark
I'd be praying for deliverance
From the night in
To the day

But it's all gray, here
It's all gray, here
But it's all gray
To me

I may know the word
But not taste
It
Now this may be the time
But I might waste
But I might waste it
This may be the hour
Somethin' move me, someone prove me wrong
Before night comes
With indifference

If I'm on my knees I'm begging now
If I'm on my knees I'm groping in the dark
I'd be praying for deliverance
From the night in
To the day

But it's all gray, here
It's all gray, here
It's all gray, here
It's all gray, to me

I recognize the walls inside
I recognize them all
I've paced between them, chasing demons down
Until they fall
In fitful sleep, enough to keep
Their strength, enough to crawl
Into my head with tangled threads
They riddle me to solve
Again
And again
