Conor Oberst - Zigzagging Toward The Light Lyrics
I'm blessed with a heart that doesn't stopMy minds a weathervane it spins around just like a topKnows what the winds of fortune bringIn the season of the witchHome is a perjury, a parlor trick, an urban mythOh how the circumstances change ( ooooohhhhhh)This world is smoke and steamCompromise and metermaidsI'm going to leave here before to longZigzagging toward the lightI'm off to sing my boundless songTrue love it hides like city starsNothing to gaze upon or contemplateHow near or farIf it comes, it comes quite unannouncedA momentary glanceLit up by sun or moonOr bonfire or ambulanceOh how the circumstances change ( ooooohhhhhh)Feels unmistakable with no idea from where it cameBut you will know it when it's goneZigzagging through the nightI've heard you sing your boundless songHow did you sing the boundless song?How did you sing? How did you sing?Sing for the founders his word is never keptA bindle of flowers to state his mindAnd bloom when he forgetsIt's true that shadows tell the timeOn sunny afternoons, on crowded sidewalks, passersbyI'm in a Que that stretches outFar as the eye can seeIt forms a figure eight and goes on for eternityOh how the circumstances change ( ooooohhhhhh)I fly by interstate across a purple mountain rangeI find a place to come undoneZigzagging toward you nowI sing out loud our boundless song
