How Dark Is Gone
BEN HARPER · Call It What It Is 2016 · Track 04 of 11
Aren't you glad you can still feel pain Aren't you glad you still feel anything Aren't you glad you can still complain Aren't you glad you're still the same Make you run through life when you could walk Make you scream when you wanted to talk
Would you rather wave a flag Or wave goodbye Would you rather flood your heart Or dare let them see you cry Rather fight a war or live in fear Aren't you glad to be here
You can't know till you do By then lesser thieves have spoken for you With their quiet demands In a whispered hush You may have to lie When the truth hurts too much
As life traces the lines in our faces I won't look away Some die too young Some live too long How dark is gone
