I Listened (Every Night) Lyrics by Blood Orange
I wasn’t worried in the night
And you could never have a decent time
Middle of your bed
Nothing could prepare you for this day
I was a brother in a fight
Within myself I saw a darkened light
And the music stayed so low
Deafening on my way home, so
And I listened every night
Falling out the way
Something made you stay
Time will change you
It’s like it’s chosen every time
My hands could never grip too strong or tight
Neither head or chest
Nothing could prepare you for what’s wrong
And I listened every night
Falling out the way
Something made you stay
And I listened every night
Falling out the way
Something made you stay
Time will change you
I couldn’t see
Anything in between that’s soft
I wasn’t there at all
A dream is often solo
