lirik lagu brooke fraser - hosea's wife
i just spoke silence with the seeker next to me
she had a heart with hesitant, halting speech
that turned to mine and asked belligerently
“what do i live for?”
i see the scars of searches everywhere i go
from hearts to wars to literature to radio
there’s a question
like a shame no one will show
“what do i live for?”
we are hosea’s wife
we are squandering this life
using people like ladders
and words like knives
chorus
if we’ve eyes to see
if we’ve ears to hear
to find it in our hearts and mouths
the word that saves is near
shed that shallow skin
come and live again
leave all you were before
to believe is to begin
there is truth in little corners of our lives
there are hints of it in songs
and children’s eyes
it’s familiar, like an ancient lullaby
what do i live for?
we are hosea’s wife
we are squandering this life
using bodies like money
and truth like lies
chorus
bridge
we are more than dust
that means something
that means something
we are more than just
blood and emotions
inklings and notions
atoms on oceans
