Bless The Bold Future

Lyrics for Bless The Bold Future

I want to give you everything Truth is I don't want to give you everything given to me Get in line I want to break patterns Make a new moment But how can I trust I won't fuck it all up When I keep doing things I thought I'd given up? Dear unborn child that I can't bear having Look at the state of the planet What kind of life would you have if you had it? This is a nation of pushers and addicts This is a time of great change But the habits are deeply ingrained And we don't have the strength to rip up the old fabric The illusion is heavy And it takes a maverick to stand in the crosshairs and say I won't have it I can hear you calling I see the light in the eyes of my love And I want to make life And I want to raise children How can I battle the ego that tells me to multiply, multiply Make yourself many With the wisdom that says "don't do it" Much braver to get yourself ready for a strange life That will be distant and heavy sometimes Bring a child into chaos like this? Bring a child into danger like this? The whole world is a factory floor Isn't actually real, is a massive distortion Place like this Just makes you want to let go fast and keep falling I can hear you calling But I love you too much to not give you fair warning If you want to be here, fine I will wash myself in the waters And make myself pure for you I will do what a human is born to do Lay my life down to make sure home is warm for you We lie in the long grass Talk in a whisper Nothing but birdsong Nothing but love Nothing but certainty Bless the bold future Bless the bold future Bless the wild creature If ever you open your eyes I will be there I can hear you calling But I love you too much to not give you fair warning Love you too much (Too much) Love you too much (Too much, too much)
