Hozier - Unknown / Nth lyrics

[Hozier - Unknown / Nth lyrics]

You know the distance never made
A difference to me i swam a lake of fire
I'd have walked across the floor of any sea
Ignored the vastness between all
That can be seen and all that we believe
So I thought you were like an angel to me

Funny how true colors shine in
Darkness and in secrecy
If there were scarlet flags
They washed out in the mind of mе
Where a blindin' light shone
On you еvery night
And either side of my sleep
Where you were held frozen like
An angel to me

It ain't the being alone (Sha la la)
It ain't the empty home, baby (Sha la la)
You know I'm good on my own (Sha la la)
Sha la la, baby, no
It's more the being unknown
So much of the livin', love
Is the being unknown

You called me angel for the first time
My heart leapt from me you smile now
I can see it's pieces still
Stuck in your teeth
And what's left of it, I listen to it tick
Every tedious beat
Going unknown as any angel to me

Do you know I could break beneath the weight?
Of the goodness, love, I still carry for you
That I'd walk so far just to take
The injury of finally knowin' you

It ain't the being alone (Sha la la)
It ain't the empty home, baby (Sha la la)
You know I'm good on my own (Sha la la)
Sha la la, baby, no
It's more the being unknown
And there are some people, love
Who are better unknown

Mm-mm hmm
