Wake For Young Souls

Third Eye Blind · Out Of The Vein [2003]

Today I found my soul

I felt it die inside of me, yeah

So I turn to you

Life is like that you know.

I have your face in a photo in high school

When you were alive, but that's all I have

And I can't remember who I was myself then

And it doesn't help

Still I looked to you as a friend

To tell me



Who we are now, who we are

It's who we are now, who we are

Where does time go now on a wake for young souls? (2x)

Like a lullaby you sing oh ooh oh ooh oh ooh



Well the wind that blows

It's blowing colder

And the child that grows

She's growing older

And the friends we know

They'll turn a shoulder

But the friends we know

They're growing colder so



It's who we are now, who we are

It's who we are now, who we are

Where does time go now on a wake for young souls?

You tell me, who we are now, who we are

It's who we are now, who we are

Oh no, on a wake for young souls

Na na na na na na... (where's my soul?)x3



Cycle of the moon brings blood to the woman

In the blood of the woman brings birth of a child

Child grow up

Keep forgetting something

Birth of a child comes someplace while you

Even grey days beat the shade to wean

Unbodied unsouled unheard unseen

Let the gift be grown in the time to call our own

Let the gift be sewn before the windows closing

Truth is natural like a wind that blows

Follow the direction no matter where it goes

So it shall be the earth and the sea

Let the truth blow like a hurricane through me



Oh ooh oh ooh oh ooh oooh...



If I've been cold, if I've spoken in anger

To have been bold

Forgive me

You know I don't see your mother

Not like before

Though she hasn't forgotten

She doesn't like to be reminded anymore

Annie got married

It didn't come without tears

Like the day you died I had laughter for these years



So it's who we are now, who we are

It's who we are now, who we are

Where does time go now on a wake for young souls now

It's who we are now, who we are

It's who we are now, who we are

Whoa no on a wake for young souls



Other things we know

Are gonna fall away from me

Like a grain of sand, slips through a good friend's hand.
