lyrics

I just cannot compare to you – so beautiful
I just can't do the things you do – so wonderful

And I will shake, 'cause the sky's gonna fall
when I come to my senses and realise that everything I'm doing is a waste
Of the breath in my lungs, of the songs I have sung
Of the voice I have been given just to speak my own truth

Huh huh!

I need a change of policy – so personal
I need a set of new beliefs - I’ve been too comfortable

And I will break down the words in my head
I'm allowed to be sad, but I'm not allowed to be so cruel to the only one
who was here from the start, who will always remain
I have pushed her away, now I have got to win her back

Huh huh!

The roof of this great house is surely falling down

Huh huh!

Can you feel the earth quake with the knowledge to come?
I can feel in my bones It will tear me apart and reconfigure me and then
if I look in your eyes,and I don’t see the truth, or a person like me,
then I have got to start again

Huh huh!

Can you feel it, feel the earth, Can you feel it, feel the earth…

Can you feel it, feel the earth, can you feel the earth, feel the earth...

SHAKE!
