Like breathing in sulfur Stay, you don't always know where you stand Till you know that you won't run away There's something inside me that feels My guilt and my shame always sell me short, Always feel the same And my face and my soul always wear me
Ngempilo yami yonke (With all my life) Here we stand waiting on the plain Darkness has taken the last outpost of the day Somewhere gunships hunt their illusive prey And I know inside you feel the same way The sky in your heart is so grey And the jackals
(Ya know, ya know, ya know) Ya know, ya know, ya know Don't you feel the same way? It starts out like a murmur Then it grows like thunder Until it bursts inside of you Try to hold it steady Wait until you're ready Any second now will do
