Unso Lyrics

The light arrived and died

Among idle boys

Waiting on their wind

Getting colder

Boys arrived and went

And boys were returned

One by one

To Heaven's cold shoulder

I'm a box of words

Sent like a flight of birds

I'm a fount for hurts

Tired of whips and whirls

You say it can't be so

That's unso

You say it needn't be so

That's unso

You say it won't be so

That's unso

The boys were unfinished—

Like foundering ships

Firing their guns for aid

But with so many ships

It's just a sea of stars

To those on shore, already made

I'm a box of words—

Dangerous to no one else

I'm a fount for hurts—

Stamped with a thousand tells

You say it can't be so

That's unso

You say it needn't be so

That's unso

You say it won't be so

That's unso

I'm a box of words—

The play before the play

I'm a fount for hurts—

A metronome's disgrace

Sometimes the dark seems indefinite

Sometimes the dark seems indefinite

You say it can't be so

That's unso

You say it needn't be so

That's unso

You say it won't be so

That's unso

You say it can't be so

That's unso

You say it can't be so

That's unso

You say it needn't be so

That's unso

You say it won't be so

That's unso

If I'm unso

It will be so
