Lucie Idlout - Sounds Of Sadness lyrics

I get soft behind my eyes When I hear the sounds of sadness Is it dog, or is it woman Wailing or howling How can so much sadness be found in one sound When you see sadness walking down the street Does she thrill you make you smile to know You're just a little better than she is until you realize It was you you were watching all along Steals up to the vacuum blackness Of the sky cut up by scolding northern lights Leaving me feeling small When you see sadness walking down the street Does she thrill you make you smile to know You're just a little better than she is until you realize It was you you were watching all along Tease me stillness, tease me calm Take me down, the sounds of sadness Strike me down, the sounds of sadness Lay me down, the sounds of sadness
