lyrics

The other day I burnt a hole inside my brain and now this pain just won’t subside
Well I think my mind's a-grieving it witnessed something so surreal the perfect ride
It was then I knew the answers to every question every doubt that stirred my insides
I felt whole for that one night just like God on the seventh day all filled with pride

And now all I am is lost
Waiting for some kind of sign
From the great divine

Running frantic circles like a blind man all misplaced without his cane
While this lady’s in a dumpster telling tall tales of her prime back in the day
I said love you’ve got it rough why don’t you pick yourself right up out of this waste
She said son you’ve got it wrong this shanty is my home at least I know my place

And it hit me like a rock
Thrown from somewhere from above
From the great divine

Frozen in time
Locked away up in the sky
In the great divine

Secrets we have left behind
In the great divine
I are you and you are I
In the great divine
Puzzle pieces all aligned
In the great divine

Where sorrow is forgotten

It’s difficult to describe Teague’s style, but it usually consists of unpredictable melodies that stray, intricate, dynamic arrangements and a soaring, vocal tremolo. ... more
