[00:14.05] In the holding tank I built for myself, it's feeding time [00:19.99] And I start to feel afraid 'cause I'm the last one left in line [00:26.38] The endless string of summer storms that led me to today [00:35.73] Began one afternoon with you, long ago and far away

1 John 4:16 Full Lyrics

[00:14.05] In the holding tank I built for myself, it's feeding time [00:19.99] And I start to feel afraid 'cause I'm the last one left in line [00:26.38] The endless string of summer storms that led me to today [00:35.73] Began one afternoon with you, long ago and far away [00:43.46] And someone leads the beast in on its chain [00:53.90] But I know you're thinking of me 'cause it's just about to rain [01:01.17] So I won't be afraid of anything ever again [01:17.78] In the cell that holds my body back, the door swings wide [01:30.71] And I feel like someone's lost child as the guards lead me outside [01:35.97] And if the clouds are gathering, it's just to point the way [01:46.20] To an afternoon I spent with you when it rained all day [01:53.25] And someone leads the beast in on its chain [02:04.54] But I know you're thinking of me 'cause it's just about to rain [02:14.55] So I won't be afraid of anything ever again [02:22.77]
