about

Old song. Dare I say catholic? Universal, which is rare for me.

lyrics

It's Always Something

There’s something hot about young flesh
There’s something cool about the clothes
There’s something moving in my middle
There’s something calling I should loathe
There’s something ageless in young love
There’s something burning in my breast
There’s something freeing in our contract
And stale beneath our breath.

If it’s not one thing, then it’s another
It’s always something.

There’s something lonely in a crowd
There’s something rich about the poor
There’s something fleeting in the concrete
There’s something locked about that door
There’s something holy in the church
There’s something selfish in my prayers
There’s something cruel about your mercy
And cluttering your stairs.

If it’s not one thing, then it’s another
It’s always something.
