One, two
One, two, three, four
Now if I had the courage, I'd pour in your jar
All the things that I have heard you whisper in the dark
And when that jar was heavy with your honey, confidence
I'd put it to my lips and drink its meaning and its sense
Its meaning and its sense
It has no end, so let's pretend it's now
Let's get started now
Let's get started now
Oh, now
Oh-oh-oh-oh, now
Oh, now
Well, nothing could be plainer than the things that have been done
And there can be no mystery in what is yet to come
It's now that howls at nothing, it's now that runs and hides
It's now that winds its spineless coils and slithers out of sight
Your cries above the furrow, draw my fingers like a plow
Through tattered ends that twist and bend about the here and now
The here is blind and helpless and strives against the dark
The now's a well of shadows where the world has come apart
The world has come apart
It has no end, so let's pretend it's now
Let's get started now
Let's get started now
Oh, now
Oh, oh, oh, oh now
Oh, oh now
The very precious little that escapes the powers of thee
The eyes that judge, the words that form our meager histories
But when your flood surrounds me, when the waters burst and come
Who knows the things that I have felt, who knows what I have done
And if I had the courage, I'd pour into your jar
All the things I have heard you whisper in the dark
And when the jar was heavy with your honeyed confidence
I'd put it to my lips and drink it's meaning and it's sense
It's meaning and it's sense
It has no end, so let's pretend it's now
Let's get started now
Let's get started now
Oh, now
Oh, oh, oh, oh now
Oh, oh now
Let's get started
